Fletcher family research bulletin

Notes

Editor: Marilyn Bridge Brown.

Newsletter for the interchange of genealogical data and history of the Fletcher (and variant spellings) families who came mainly from England, Ireland, Scotland, and Switzerland. Some allied families came from Holland, Ireland, Poland, and Wales. Some focus is on (but not limited to) Robert Fletcher (d. 1677) who emigrated from England to Concord, Massachusetts ca. 1630. Robert's five sons were Luke, William, Samuel, Francis, and Grisell. In the 1600's, Fletchers settled in Barbados, Bermuda, Jamaica, Somers Island, and St. Christopher (West Indies), and in Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, North Carolina, Virginia, and Vermont. In the 1700's, some moved to New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island (Canada), and to Georgia, Kentucky, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, and West Virginia. During the 1800's, some settled in British Columbia, New Brunswick, Ontario, Quebec, and Saskatchewan (Canada), Australia, Mexico, and in Alabama, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Florida, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, Ohio, Oklahoma (Indian Territory), Oregon, South Dakota, Texas, and Washington D.C. Later descendants also lived in Alberta, Manitoba, and Newfoundland (Canada), England, New Zealand, the Philippines, and in Alaska, Arizona, Montana, North Dakota, Utah, Washington, Wisconsin, Wyoming, and elsewhere. Information is included about persons who changed their surnames to Fletcher, and some who changed Fletcher to other surnames. Some Fletchers have African American bloodlines. Some had Cherokee, Choctaw, and other American Indian bloodlines. Subscription information, index of past articles, and other genealogical information is available on the editor's web site.
