Fletcher family help
« on: Tuesday 28 May 24 12:40 BST (UK) »
Good Afternoon All,
Back again asking for some more help with my research. I am hitting a brick wall with a George Fletcher (Husbandman) born about 1768, that's all i have on him apart from his marriage to Elizabeth Andrew born 1767 in Staithes and married George Fletcher at Hinderwell 7 July 1788.

Problem is finding the correct George Fletcher, his correct Dob and his mother & father. your help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
Kind Regards
Mike Fletcher

Hi Mike, where do you get his rough birth year from? In another place you said he was born about 1760 not 1768.
As he was said to be Husbandman when he married I’d say he was unlikely to be only 20 years old.

Hi Spelk,
Thanks for your reply, yes, very confusing, George Fletcher was given two possible Do B's, one was about 1760 and the other about 1767/8. These are from other FT sources which i picked up on. I don't really know his DoB or any other details about him apart from his marriage.
Regards
Mike
