Jim,I am also researching the ancestors of James and Sarah Fletcher found in the 1850 Graves Co., KY, census.I believe him to be the father of Sarah Jane Fletcher, born on 04 August 1843 in Paducah, McCracken Co., Kentucky.Some of my family are descendants of Sarah Jane Fletcher who married Robert Sidney Young on 27 June 1857 in Paducah, McCracken Co., Kentucky.They left Kentucky in Oct. 1867 and migrated to Cedar Valley, near Austin, in Travis Co., Texas, arriving there in Jan. 1868.
In our family, Sarah Jane Fletcher's father was known as John Wesley Fletcher, of French descent.I received an e-mail from Homer Fletcher asking about the "John Wesley" name since he had seen that name posted in queries.I wrote him early this week and explained why he was called John Wesley in our family, but have not heard back as of this date.Do you have any information on this family on the ancestors and descendants both?I am interested in sharing any and all information on this family.I am especially interested in proof that this is the family of the Sarah Jane Fletcher listed above.
Thank you.
