Thank you for clearing this up for me. There have been times when I've confused the same family first names to the wrong member and did so again this time. I appreciate your expertise in this field.

I'm sorry I'm so late in replying to you. Yes, Alexander John Fletcher, b 1886 in Yeovil was my beloved grandfather and his mother was Harriet Potter and father was William Henry Fletcher. William Henry preferred to be called "Hy" and I've found documents (when he enrolled Alexander and his...

Thank you for finding this relative. You're right. It was Alexander Henry's daughter. I have an 1891 census that states Sarah Eliza Wheeler was his wife and Beatrice was 3 yr old at the time of the census. Sarah Anne, his daughter is 10 yr old in the census. Is it possible that Beatrice...

Thank you very much for this information. I've had to be out of town and have just returned to the Birmingham History Forum and appreciate what you've researched on my behalf. I'll take your advice re: Birmingham newspapers on Find My Past since I'm a member. I'm doing my best for my Canadian...

Thank you so much for what you've researched about my Fletcher ancestors. Can you please let me know the newspapers name and how you found these important articles re: my Fletcher family members so I can follow up? I will now look for photographs and more information on Farm Street Hockley. I...

Thank you very much for what you've researched on behalf of my Fletcher family. Once they moved from England to Canada they didn't share anything about their families or their lives in England. Although in my personal research I've found dates and dates, I'm sorely missing actual stories and...

Thank you for this information and the map. I truly appreciate it. Because my grandfather Alexander John Fletcher and his sister Lillian Fletcher (Burr) never spoke about their families or lives in England, our Fletcher family knows nothing about their lives and families in England except for...

I appreciate your response. Yes, you do have the right family. Unfortunately, what I submitted was my record of the Fletcher blood line, however, when they ended their terms in the military, they returned with their families to Birmingham. I'm going to go through my research right now so I can...

I am writing the Fletcher family history book, producing a personal DVD of my research and a reunion in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada this summer. I've learned that most Fletcher family members since 1705 were born and lived in Birmingingham for most of their lives. I'm looking for photographs and...

Sorry to hear that. In any case, I truly appreciate your researching this family story on my behalf. Lois Fletcher

Thank you for finding this for me. I wish I could show this to my father, no longer with us, who was named after Edward Richards and (I, after his wife Lois Moseley), this document. I very much appreciate this web site. I am Edward and Lois's great-grandaughter researching and writing a family...

I appreciate your response. Yes, I did see moulder. I'm now looking for current Birmingham family members who might have stories and/or photographs. Edward - b. 1865 in Birmingham. d. 1909 in Hamilton, Ontario. Father William b.1829 d. 1870. Mother Emma Orme b. 1831 d. 1892. Married Lois...

I am researching the William Richards family history in Birmingham. I am the great-grandaughter of Edward Richards. My father, his grandson, told me his grandfather Edward Richards, son William Richards and Emma Orme played professional football for a Birmingham team before emigrating to...

I am researching my father's family, beginning in 1705-Samuel Fletcher who married before 1733 (unknown wife's name) in St Philip's church and had 8 children. Since that time, almost all Fletchers in my bloodline have remained in Birmingham and surrounding suburbs. I'm looking for someone with...
