John Vail Fleet was born 31 August 1885 in St. John, son of Charles Fleet and Mary Alice (Jenkins) Fleet. I have search through the NBPA vital records site and can find no information on him. Could he have been still born or died in infancy. Any information would help. Thank you, Walter Fleet in Pennsylvania

Hi Walter, The NB ARchives - Brunswick Newspaper Statistics - shows a Charles Fleet who died 02 Aug 1888 Victoria Mills-Fredericton. Ancestry shows the Widow Mary A. Fleet with a son John aged 8 on the 1891 Fredericton, York Co. census; John aged 18, Tanner, on 1901 Fredericton (written as FLETT on 1901 census) with his widowed mother. There was another John Fleet aged 9 on the 1891 Saint John census but his parents were William & Mary Fleet. The 1911 Fredericton census has the various older children married - but John is not one of them nor is he living with any of his siblings nor are his younger siblings found. I did see John's brother Leonard's late birth registration applied for when an adult but nothing for John. If John died aft the 1901, this whole time period of late 1800s & early 1900s is a gray area where records are concerned. Shirley On Wed, Mar 30, 2011 at 7:41 PM, Walter R.
