Cherington baptisms - FLETCHER
« on: Monday 17 June 13 15:37 BST (UK) »
I have traced my family back to William FLETCHER born about 1818 in Cherington (according to later census data when he was living in Great Rollright) but have no idea who his parents are as I cannot find him listed on the 1841 census.

I would be grateful if some kind person could check the baptism records for around about that time to see if there are any Fletchers listed.

Many thanks,
Ursula

I've found him in 1841, but the census isn't much help:

Many thanks, Victor and Rambler, for the speedy replies - they have certainly given me other avenues to look at.

I know this was a while ago, but in case anyone is still looking for him:
William Fletcher, bap 20 Sep 1818 at Ebrington, Glouc. son of Richard Fletcher and Catherine Dee.

Married Susannah Penson, 29 Sep 1842 at Blockley, Worc.

Censuses from 1841 to 1871 are at Great Rollright, Oxfordshire.
1881 census hook Norton, Oxfordshire

Died May 1886 Hook Norton and buried 11 May 1886, Great Rollright.

i can go back on that line another 4 or 5 generations.
