Hi Bryant,
How did you link Elizabeth Butler (Eli Fletcher's partner) back to Matthew Butler who you say is her father.
I too believe this to be the case but am struggling to prove it.

Hi,

I'm researching the Fletcher family - my son-in-law is a Fletcher.
Your grandmother, Leah, was sister to his grandfather.
I've got quite a few details and documents that I'm happy to share.
I'd be interested to see if you've researched Elizabeth Butler, wife (?) of Austin.

I'm no expert on Irish surnames so I should not comment.
I've not come across the McNiffe name at all, let alone in connection withe Cunneff/Cunliffe line.

I'm looking at a Cunneff family that came to Bacup, Lancashire between 1841 and 1849.
James the father was b. c1800 in Ireland.
He was a soldier (probably in Ireland).  Any help on that aspect would be most helpful.

His two sons (John b. c1837 and James b. c1839) were married in Bacup.
James was born in Galway.
John was married to Catherine Doran and James to Sarah Atkinson.
I'm more uncertain of the two girls.
Bridget (b.c1829) married John Hargreaves.  Ann (b. c1832) married James Butterworth.

Am researching Corporal George Slater 8th Battalion RA.
He was in the Med (probably Gibraltar/Ibetha) around 1814.
His son William was born there in c1814.
The RA museum have suggested that WO 69 can help.
I googled 8th Battalion and WO/309 came up.
Apparently this covers 1796-1830.
