Henry Alais Fletcher
« on: Sunday 09 August 20 07:47 BST (UK) »
In the Electoral Register for Impington (nr Cambridge) Henry Alais Fletcher is listed as living in Cambridge Road in 1910 and 1911.
In the 1911/13 Land Tax Register,  H A Fletcher is listed as the Occupier of a house in Cambridge Road Impington.
Can anyone see him in the 1911 census?

Thank you for the info. Interestingly, the house in Impington was close to the Baptist Church.

Had you spotted the 1903 newspaper report where he refused to pay an element of the rates under "Passive Resistance"?
