G'day Pat I can't help you with your query but as I have Shearers in my ancestry I thought I' say hullo. What island were your Fletts from?. My Mary Shearer/Sherar came from Shapinshay, she was born in 1806, married William Scott in 1827 and they emigrated to Australia in 1849, so my dates are a little later than yours. Good luck with your search Peter >Hi group:--I am looking for info on: > WILLIAM FLETT > 11 NOV.1769 m.
