Falkland Islands "Desire The Right"

Hi sbduk2 Welcome to Rootschat 
You may already have searched these avenues:
When did Alice Ann FLETCHER marry George BILLEN - do you gave their marriage record (was Alice a spinster?)
Where does Aunt Stella believe she was born and in what month and year? Under what surnames have you searched for her birth? Does she have any middle names?
Cheers AMBLY

i have been in contact with friend and have this additional information, hope it helps you all. Alice Fletcher married George Billen23/9/1916. Alice was a widow and her previous husband was named Dyer.Aunt Stella believes she was born in Salisbury 14/07/1920.When Stella applied for a birth cert.searches were made by the central office of b.m.d.She eventually had to go to a solicitor and swear on oath that to the information she believed from childhood was correct and she now has an official letter signed and stamped by the solicitor as an official record but no birth cert. can be issued I have also rearched records under the name of Fletcher and Dyer going 5 years either side of her d.o.b. Stella Alice Billen was known to her as her name I cannot thank you enough for your interest and help, stella married herself 1947 To Harry they had no children Kind Reguards Norma. thank you all.

Would it be helpful to approach the education department in the area where Stella started school?
I know that in some places school records can be used to ascertain age for pension entitlement.

Hi Sbduk2, Have you considered that Stella could have been a daughter of Alices seven brothers and sisters. They were all born within two years of each other, so would all possibly have been getting married and having children around about the same time period as each other.......... just a thought.

Hi....l found Alice age 3 born Box Wiltshire living with Parents and siblings in 1891....here hoping from the names Stella may recognise some of the info. I worked with the Salisbury connection and found that even though Alice seems to marry Herbert Dyer in London in 1909(maybe working as servant) she comes back to Salisbury to marry George Billen. The only other Alice A Fletcher born similar birth year is born in Lancs and residing in Lancs in 1891 and another 1889 birth is Alice Mary from Swindon. The only other two are 1881 and 1883 births so little too early?
1891 Corsham Wilts Frank Fletcher Head M 30 Platelayer GWR Hemmington Somerset Emma Fletcher Wife M 30 Wellington Somerset Frank Fletcher son 4 Box Wiltshire Alice Fletcher dau 3 '' '' George Fletcher dau 1 '' ''
and then found the same family in the 1901 and found all births consistant with Chippenham (registration District) for all children in this family
1901 Priory Road Chippenham RG13 /1918
Frank Fletcher Head M 39 Railway Worker Somerset Emma Fletcher Wife M 39 '' Frank Fletcher son 15 Box Alice Fletcher dau 13 '' George Fletcher son 11 '' William Fletcher son 9 '' Lena Fletcher dau 7 '' John Henry son 5 '' Annie Arene? dau 3 '' Walter Charles Fletcher son 1 ''
and here they all are....
Frank Fletcher Chippenham Sep Q 1886 5a 59 Alice Fletcher Chippenham A/M/J 1888 5a 61 George Fletcher Chippenham Mar Q 1890 5a 69 William Fletcher Chippenham J/F/M 1892 5a 74 Lena Fletcher Chippenham J/F/M 1894 5a 65 John Henry Fletcher Chippenham J/A/S 1895 5a 69 Annie Irene Fletcher Chippenham J/A/S 1897 5a 63 Walter Charles Fletcher Chippenham Sep 1899 5a 69
if this is familiar to Stella(and i hope it is the right family) I also have marriage details if you do not have already. As you already looked under Fletcher surname for birth of Stella and didnt find one maybe the 2 sisters married and Stella was born in one of those names ? It is a real longshot but you never know, otherwise it could be just a straight case of an adoption, which is horrible for Stella as you said earlier because all word of mouth info has now been lost 
Let me know how you get on with this info and if l can help some more l will
very best wishes cheryle.f
