Hi Rosie99

I don't know much about Fletcher other than his yr of birth on the census and on other family trees is 1793 but I'm not sure that can be right if his older brother was born in 1719

The only dates i have is for

Charles and that's 1719 - 1784

father John 1692

mother is Margaret not got a date for her

I know they were all from Cockermouth/Maryport area of Cumbria

How have you got back to this birth for Charles.  If he was your 4th gt g'father please list your 3rd gt gfather, 2nd gt gfather with dates and wives etc so we can check it back.

Youngy1981, just a head's up. In reply#5, you have posted identifying details of yourself  and someone named Angela, that would be best removed, as Rootschat has a 'no living persons' policy, whereby only those known to be dead can be identified on the forum. If you read my message before the 24hrs are up from when you first posted that part, you can edit and remove it yourself, otherwise you'll need to ask a moderator (use 'report to moderator' - I tried reporting it for you, but was getting an error message in my browser for some reason), to edit  it.

I've messaged Trystan about the problem with the 'report to moderator' button.

Thank you Trystan  :).  Sorry, the first one timed out. 

Donna,
In 1911 John Young is in Ireland bn c1875 England, how do you know that he was born in Cumberland and that his parents were John & Ellen.

1881 census has Ellen (widow) and children Daniel 11, Jane 9 & James 10 months.  I can't see a son John for her on any census.  Where do you have him in 1881, 1891 and 1901
