About us
See also the original Fletcher surname website at:
http://www.genealogy.fletcher.net/Major%20Fletcher%20Lines.htm Current to: June 1, 2010, not being updated further.
We have completed the process of duplicating and updating our original website. This new website has a basic format, that will require some changes, the main ones are that the text descriptions that accompanied the old results chart cannot be placed on the new chart, and as of now participant names cannot be placed on the Y-DNA chart, only kit numbers. This is being placed here on the opening background page, but a working copy is also on the Results Page (under the “About This Group” tab). This serves as a backup to prevent data loss during updates.
The old surname page was constructed using software that is very hard to update.
THIS WILL BE UPDATED FROM TIME TO TIME, THE LATEST WORKING COPY IS ON THE RESULTS PAGE (under the “About This Group” tab) Last change of this page on ________. Results page now changed current to ________, with kit numbers matching the Y-DNA chart organization. We currently don't have sorting control over the Y-DNA chart organization within the sub groups. New tests or new upgraded results can change the list order within a sub group.
Note that we have added info on the kits with the autosomal or Family Finder test for the Y Kits, and where a maternal line connection to the Y-DNA sub group, the FF kits are notated below. New test results first appear as "Ungrouped" on the Y-DNA chart, until they are changed. Y DNA upgrade results are automatically entered.

John (L) Fletcher of Mason County, Kentucky
John, whose middle initial may be L, left Mason Co. KY between 1820 and 1835 and migrated to MO. He had two known sons, William H., b. 1813, and George C., b. 1810. John Merle Fletcher descends from William. Lynwood and Michael descend from Isaac Fletcher of Scott Co. VA, who was b. c1809 in NC and m. Elizabeth Lankford/Langford. The exact relationship between these two branches of this genetic line is not yet known. At 37 markers minor mutations would show Dennis and John Merle closer, Franklin Lee and James Blagg closer to each other, but also at mode values, and Michael, A Scot (Michael's son), Lynwood, and Paul Henry all have a unique mutation value at DYS456 (the 29th value point) with a copy count value of 15 versus the balance of the group at 16. Mutations are rare events, not likely to be exactly repeated on other distant but related lines. This shows an old mutation that helps group them closer together than to the others. Mark William was close at 25 markers, but was 32/37 to the mode values.
Another genetic branch is from Mark William Fletcher of Australia, who descends from the Rev. William Kew Fletcher (b.1800 Aberdeen d.1867 Worthing), s/o Thomas Fletcher (c1767-1851), a civil engineer whose descendants immigrated to India and Australia. The connection between these branches of the same Fletcher genetic family are probably in England at least two generations back from Thomas. Mark matches 23/25 with the other three; Lynwood and Michael match 37/37; Lynwood and John match 64/67. A. Scot Fletcher, who is a son of Michael Rodney, has joined with Y-67 and Family Finder testing.

VA, born c1770; d. c1840/50; m. 1791 Mary Milam. Children: James, Rowland, Daniel, Joseph, William, Aaron, Elias, perhaps Polly and Nancy. [Also son John, perhaps a son Milam and another daughter Elizabeth.] See Fletcher Family Research Bulletin, Dec 88; Mar 89; Mar 90; Jun 90; Jun 91. 2) Capt. William Fletcher, first married Margaret Cargile, with two sons, a) James F. Fletcher of Marshall Co. AL, who m. Nancy Profitt in Wilkes Co. NC and had sons Capt.

TN, who m. Lydia Jarvis. 4) Matthew D. Fletcher of Russell Co. VA, who m. Rachel Morgan. 5) George W. Fletcher (b. c1812-17 VA) who m. Ann C. Groves. Matthew, Thomas M and Richard match 67/67; Four members have a unique GD=2 variation in the first 37 markers, but two are consistent when upgraded to 67. Basil, James, Matthew, Richard and Thomas match 37/37; David and Walter match them 36/37 and John Lloyd 35/37. Three close Rice matches have been found in the 1780 in Fauquier as close as 63/67, and a 67/67 White match has been found along with a close McGee match at 65/67. Results posted. This sub group has a strong Family Finder testing program. With additional testing, Charles David White and Richard J. Fletcher have a 109/111 match, and both have also signed up for the Big Y test for additional deep clade information. So far the Big Y shows very close deep clade comparisons, between them and Mr Goff plus one other, probably with the new Irish 4th haplotype within the R Haplotype.

William Fletcher of Accomac Co.,VA; James Fletcher of Brunswick Co.,VA; William Fletcher (R Hap.) of Essex Co.,VA
The participants in this genetic line descend from a variety of ancestors yet to be definitively connected to each other. There are a couple of potential forbears in the neighborhood: James Fletcher, who came to VA on the Primrose (1635); and Hannibal Fletcher, who flourished in an area of James City County, which eventually became Surry County (1635-1665). The earliest known Fletcher ancestors, to the DNA participants, are as follows:
1) William Fletcher, born ca. 1650, lived in Accomack County, VA. He married Elizabeth, daughter of Thomas Selvey, ca. 1675. His will was proved in Accomack 5 Dec 1710, naming the following children: William, Matthew, Thomas, Batterton, Brandon, Elizabeth, Dorothy, Mary, Rosannah, and Frances. Rufus Burton Fletcher descends from this William, through his son William.
2) James Fletcher, born ca. 1680-90, lived in Prince George County, VA, and died in 1733 in Brunswick County, VA. He married first Sarah, daughter of Richard Atkins (d. 1717-18). James’ children, named in his will, are: Richard, Sarah, Mary, Elizabeth, James, John, Nathan, and William. The youngest, William, is currently assumed to be the son of second wife, Amy Harwood. Donald Fox Fletcher descends from James through his sons, John and Nathan.
3) Thomas Fletcher, born ca. 1762, lived in Halifax and Pittsylvania counties, VA, where he died in 1838. He married Kesiah, daughter of Joseph Farris, in 1790, in Pittsylvania County. They had the following known children: Nancy, Tabitha, Meeky, Elizabeth, Chloe, James, John W., Susannah, and Rebecca. James Ronald Fletcher descends from Thomas through his son, John W.
4a) William Fletcher: UPDATE May 2013: See below: William Fletcher (R Hap.) of Essex Co., VA (As paper trail descendants would prefer to refer to him.) This William should be the one who lived in South Farnham Parish of Essex County, Virginia, and William’s will is dated 5 Feb 1727/28, naming minor children Nathan, William, James and Phebe. The son, William Jr., also resided in Essex and his will is dated 8 Oct 1774 in Essex County and names sons John, William, Carter, Reuben, Nathan and daughters Caty Fletcher, Foebe Fletcher (apparent sister). After the 1774 death, his sons Reuben, William III and daughter Sally and her husband Charles Breedlove moved to Caswell County, North Carolina (this is abbreviated from the family submission). William III is the son and grandson of William I and II of Essex County, Virginia; his descendant, Mickey Webb Fletcher’s DNA match with James Monroe Fletcher, descendant of Reuben Fletcher (William III’s brother) and both men’s close match with men in the Accomack/Brunswick group further proves that the Essex County Fletchers are closely related if the paper trail is correct.
4b) William Fletcher, (likely grandson of 4a) born 17 May 1751 in VA, married Rebecca, daughter of George M. Moore, ca. 1776, in Granville County, NC. Prior to 1790, they migrated to Rutherford County, NC, where William acquired substantial land holdings, in an area to become first Buncombe, then later Henderson County. In 1812, William and family migrated to Madison County, MS Territory, where he died in 1815. William and Rebecca had the following children: William, Mary, John, Joseph, Elizabeth, Martha, George Moore, Lemuel, James Benjamin, and Lorenzo F. Mickey Webb Fletcher descends from this William through his son John of Henderson Co. NC, who married three times and raised 18 children. (Note that this John’s lineage has up until recently been mistakenly tied to the William of Essex genetic line. Since one of his descendants (Mickey) is Haplogroup R1b1a2, John’s lineage cannot be tied to the William of Essex line, which is Haplogroup I.)
Donald Fox, James Ronald, and Mickey Webb all match 67/67, and their common ancestor should be within 6 to 8 generations from each of them. Rufus Burton matches them 65/67, and a common ancestor for all four is much farther away. Researchers for Donald, James, and Mickey currently speculate that Thomas (b. 1762) and William (b. 1751) likely descend from sons of James (d. 1733), i.e. Richard (b. ca. 1712), James (b. ca. 1721), or William (b. ca. 1730).
Among the other participants, James Monroe Fletcher, Jr. is a 66/67 match to Donald Fox, James Ronald, and Mickey Webb, while David Henry Fletcher is a 65/67 match. Ferrell Eugene is also a 66/67 match. Their mismatches are similar to each other but do not correspond at all to Rufus Burton’s mismatches. James Monroe’s earliest known ancestor is James Fletcher (b. 1785–NC), who married Susan and died in 1850, in Lumpkin Co. GA.

William Fletcher (I Haplogroup) of Essex County, Virginia
This line is in the I Haplogroup, and some records interpretation may conflict with a William Fletcher (R Haplogroup) of Essex Co. VA. See comments under William Fletcher of Accomac Co., VA (et al.) and below.
Born before 1700; d. 1727/28 Southfarnham Parish, Essex Co. VA; m. Martha (Carter?); will lists children William Jr., Nathan, Phoebe, and James. The following subgroups may descend or be related to this William:
1) James Fletcher of Rabun Co. GA, born 1818 NC; resided Rabun Co. 1850 and 1860; m. Jane “Jency” Morgan; children: Reuben, William A., Dicey, James Melvin, Nancy, Silas Coleman, Joseph Hillis, John, Liza, and Andrew Kimsley. Known ancestor of DNA participants Stephen Darrell Fletcher and William Charles Fletcher. There are circumstantial links to William of Essex. See Fletcher Family Research Bulletin, Dec 02.
2) William Fletcher of Southfarmham Parish m. by 1720 Mary Prichard. This William is too old to be William Jr., s/o William d. 1727/28 but a connection is likely. This William may be the William Fletcher whose will was proved in Southfarmham Parish in 1774 by John Fletcher and Charles Breedlove Jr. and whose children are believed to be John*, William (possibly the William Fletcher who was b. 1758 in Stafford Co. VA and d. 1837 in Limestone Co. AL- No, per current thought, this is a Moses of Fauquier, William), Catherine, Sarah (m. Charles Breedlove), Carter, Seborn (or Reuben), Nathan, and Pheby.
*William’s son John is not the John Fletcher of Henderson Co. NC as has long been thought. DNA results show that John of Henderson’s descendants are genetically related to the William of Accomac group.
A close reading of the above and the Red Text insert in the William of Accomac group above will show that one lineage is being used for two different lines. The writer does not have access to the original research, but it is conceivable that there were more than one line of William Fletchers, of different haplogroups, but only clear records for one person. This will require more examination by the participants.
Of the Fletcher DNA participants listed below, Stephen, William and Robert match 37/37; Johnny and Homer match them 36/37; Bart matches them 34/37; Edward matches them 24/25; Bart and Homer match 63/67. Note that these Fletcher men are in Haplogroup I, rather than the normal Fletcher haplogroup of R1b1a2 (M269). Flint Parker Fisher recently joined the Fletcher Project, and his Y-37 matches are at a GD=1 to Robert Eugene, Stephen Darryl, & William Charles, and a GD=2 to Homer Lee and Johnny, and at GD=4 to Paul Robert and Bart Allen Fletcher. Flint Parker Fisher goes back to Henry Fisher (1792-1854), who’s then unmarried mother was Susanna Fisher (1773-1834). Thus there is a strong likelihood of an unknown Fletcher father.

William Fletcher of Kanawha And Monroe Counties, Virginia
William Fletcher, born in England, is said to have been pressed into British service and served nine years before deserting during American Revolution. Five children of first wife; m2. Margaret Spickard with whom he had seven more children. Son James b. 1797 Kanawha Co. VA; m. Elizabeth Tackett. Son Robert b. 1806 Monroe Co. VA; m1. Elizabeth’s sister Keziah Tackett; m2. Elizabeth Messick; m3. Ann Traber. The Tackett and Fletcher families migrated to Henry Co. IN. See Fletcher Family Research Bulletin, Mar 1992; Mar 1994. Note that this is one of only three genetic lines in Haplogroup I. William is in Patrick’s direct line of descent. Although Patrick and Donald match 12/12, their common ancestor is at least one generation, and perhaps more, back from William. This is an I Haplogroup. As members are added to this group, they will likely have different emigrant ancestors. A recent addition, Thomas, has a long line in Ireland, and is likely a branch that never emigrated to the U.S.

http://www.genealogy.fletcher.net/Major%20Fletcher%20Lines.htm Current to: June 1, 2010, not being updated further.
We have completed the process of duplicating and updating our original website. This new website has a basic format, that will require some changes, the main ones are that the text descriptions that accompanied the old results chart cannot be placed on the new chart, and as of now participant names cannot be placed on the Y-DNA chart, only kit numbers. This is being placed here on the opening background page, but a working copy is also on the Results Page (under the “About This Group” tab). This serves as a backup to prevent data loss during updates.
The old surname page was constructed using software that is very hard to update.
THIS WILL BE UPDATED FROM TIME TO TIME, THE LATEST WORKING COPY IS ON THE RESULTS PAGE (under the “About This Group” tab) Last change of this page on ________. Results page now changed current to ________, with kit numbers matching the Y-DNA chart organization. We currently don't have sorting control over the Y-DNA chart organization within the sub groups. New tests or new upgraded results can change the list order within a sub group.
Note that we have added info on the kits with the autosomal or Family Finder test for the Y Kits, and where a maternal line connection to the Y-DNA sub group, the FF kits are notated below. New test results first appear as "Ungrouped" on the Y-DNA chart, until they are changed. Y DNA upgrade results are automatically entered.

John (L) Fletcher of Mason County, Kentucky
John, whose middle initial may be L, left Mason Co. KY between 1820 and 1835 and migrated to MO. He had two known sons, William H., b. 1813, and George C., b. 1810. John Merle Fletcher descends from William. Lynwood and Michael descend from Isaac Fletcher of Scott Co. VA, who was b. c1809 in NC and m. Elizabeth Lankford/Langford. The exact relationship between these two branches of this genetic line is not yet known. At 37 markers minor mutations would show Dennis and John Merle closer, Franklin Lee and James Blagg closer to each other, but also at mode values, and Michael, A Scot (Michael's son), Lynwood, and Paul Henry all have a unique mutation value at DYS456 (the 29th value point) with a copy count value of 15 versus the balance of the group at 16. Mutations are rare events, not likely to be exactly repeated on other distant but related lines. This shows an old mutation that helps group them closer together than to the others. Mark William was close at 25 markers, but was 32/37 to the mode values.
Another genetic branch is from Mark William Fletcher of Australia, who descends from the Rev. William Kew Fletcher (b.1800 Aberdeen d.1867 Worthing), s/o Thomas Fletcher (c1767-1851), a civil engineer whose descendants immigrated to India and Australia. The connection between these branches of the same Fletcher genetic family are probably in England at least two generations back from Thomas. Mark matches 23/25 with the other three; Lynwood and Michael match 37/37; Lynwood and John match 64/67. A. Scot Fletcher, who is a son of Michael Rodney, has joined with Y-67 and Family Finder testing.

VA, born c1770; d. c1840/50; m. 1791 Mary Milam. Children: James, Rowland, Daniel, Joseph, William, Aaron, Elias, perhaps Polly and Nancy. [Also son John, perhaps a son Milam and another daughter Elizabeth.] See Fletcher Family Research Bulletin, Dec 88; Mar 89; Mar 90; Jun 90; Jun 91. 2) Capt. William Fletcher, first married Margaret Cargile, with two sons, a) James F. Fletcher of Marshall Co. AL, who m. Nancy Profitt in Wilkes Co. NC and had sons Capt. James Benjamin Fletcher, John Profitt Fletcher and Jordan Fletcher. See Fletcher Family Research Bulletin, Dec 92; Dec 95; Sep 01; Mar and Jun 02., and then b) Lazarus Fletcher w/ wife Milly and their sons John Calvin Fletcher, who was b. c1829 in AL. and sons James and Wiley. 3) Elijah Fletcher of Coffee Co. TN, who m. Lydia Jarvis. 4) Matthew D. Fletcher of Russell Co. VA, who m. Rachel Morgan. 5) George W. Fletcher (b. c1812-17 VA) who m. Ann C. Groves. Matthew, Thomas M and Richard match 67/67; Four members have a unique GD=2 variation in the first 37 markers, but two are consistent when upgraded to 67. Basil, James, Matthew, Richard and Thomas match 37/37; David and Walter match them 36/37 and John Lloyd 35/37. Three close Rice matches have been found in the 1780 in Fauquier as close as 63/67, and a 67/67 White match has been found along with a close McGee match at 65/67. Results posted. This sub group has a strong Family Finder testing program. With additional testing, Charles David White and Richard J. Fletcher have a 109/111 match, and both have also signed up for the Big Y test for additional deep clade information. So far the Big Y shows very close deep clade comparisons, between them and Mr Goff plus one other, probably with the new Irish 4th haplotype within the R Haplotype.

See Fletcher Family Research Bulletin, Jun 89; Sep 91; Sep 92; Jun 97; Dec 99; Mar-Sep 2000.
John Fletcher of Clermont County, Ohio (Genetic link to Richard of Hawkins proved through DNA of Richard Connelley Fletcher,
but not yet identified.) Married Phoebe Beadle. Three sons: William H., David, and Jesse (who m. 1811 Hannah Simpkins). See Fletcher Family Research Bulletin, Jun 89; Sep 93; Dec 2000.
John Fletcher of Marion County, Ohio (Genetic link to Richard of Hawkins proved through DNA of David R. Fletcher, but not yet identified.) John (1788-1864) was b. in Virginia; m. c1813 Catherine Davidson (Davis?). John’s sons were James, John D., Burrus Wesley, George Washington,

Robert Fletcher of Concord, Massachusetts
Arrived in Massachusetts perhaps c1636. Settled in Concord. Five children, all probably born in England: Grissell b. c1618; Francis b. c1620; William b. c1622; Luke b. c1625; and Samuel b. c1632. Wife's name unknown. See Fletcher, Edward H. The Descendants of Robert Fletcher of Concord, Massachusetts. Boston: Rand, Avery & Co., 1881. (An expanded version of his 1871 edition); and Holman, Winifred Lovering. Descendants of Robert Fletcher: The First Six Generations. Unpublished manuscript in library of NEHGS, Boston. 1950. (A carefully researched genealogy which corrects much of EHF's 1881 book; for more details, see Fletcher Family Research Bulletin, Mar 1993.) Also see Jun 98; Jun 2000; Mar-Jun-Sep 2001.

Vardaman Fletcher of Virginia and Indiana
Vardaman Fletcher (spelled variously Vardeman, Verdemon) was b. c1760 or later in Virginia and married 1797 in Washington Co. VA to Elizabeth Wells. He is believed to have had two brothers, John and William, from whom some of the DNA matches may descend. Vardaman had thirteen children, the last five born after they migrated to Indiana. Both Karl and Mark, who match 25/25, have a paper trail back to Vardaman. For further information, see FFRB Jun 1997 and Mar 2001. Kit 8585 and Rickie’s earliest known ancestor in the paper trail is “Old George” Fletcher, born 1796 (in KY?); m1. 1815 Levisa “Dicy” Johnson; m2. 1819 Louisa Marshall; mother’s name was possibly Mary; d. 1860 Magoffin Co. KY; the Johnson and Marshall families were from Montgomery Co. VA. Kit 8585 and Rickie match 12/12; Kit 8585 matches Karl and Mark 24/25; Lorn match Karl and Mark 25/25; Kit 8585 matches Lorn and Mark match 35/37; Lorn and Mark match 37/37. Dale Layton Fletcher is a new kit going back to Vardaman, and is a 36/37 match to Robert Frank Fletcher. Dale Layton and Kit 8585, have both tested with the Big Y test for additional deep clade information. So far the Big Y shows very close deep clade comparisons, in a yet smaller slice of their previous segment within the R Haplogroup. They have about 20+ other Big Y matches at their new terminal SNP.

William Fletcher of Accomac Co.,VA; James Fletcher of Brunswick Co.,VA; William Fletcher (R Hap.) of Essex Co.,VA
The participants in this genetic line descend from a variety of ancestors yet to be definitively connected to each other. There are a couple of potential forbears in the neighborhood: James Fletcher, who came to VA on the Primrose (1635); and Hannibal Fletcher, who flourished in an area of James City County, which eventually became Surry County (1635-1665). The earliest known Fletcher ancestors, to the DNA participants, are as follows:
1) William Fletcher, born ca. 1650, lived in Accomack County, VA. He married Elizabeth, daughter of Thomas Selvey, ca. 1675. His will was proved in Accomack 5 Dec 1710, naming the following children: William, Matthew, Thomas, Batterton, Brandon, Elizabeth, Dorothy, Mary, Rosannah, and Frances. Rufus Burton Fletcher descends from this William, through his son William.
2) James Fletcher, born ca. 1680-90, lived in Prince George County, VA, and died in 1733 in Brunswick County, VA. He married first Sarah, daughter of Richard Atkins (d. 1717-18). James’ children, named in his will, are: Richard, Sarah, Mary, Elizabeth, James, John, Nathan, and William. The youngest, William, is currently assumed to be the son of second wife, Amy Harwood. Donald Fox Fletcher descends from James through his sons, John and Nathan.
3) Thomas Fletcher, born ca. 1762, lived in Halifax and Pittsylvania counties, VA, where he died in 1838. He married Kesiah, daughter of Joseph Farris, in 1790, in Pittsylvania County. They had the following known children: Nancy, Tabitha, Meeky, Elizabeth, Chloe, James, John W., Susannah, and Rebecca. James Ronald Fletcher descends from Thomas through his son, John W.
4a) William Fletcher: UPDATE May 2013: See below: William Fletcher (R Hap.) of Essex Co., VA (As paper trail descendants would prefer to refer to him.) This William should be the one who lived in South Farnham Parish of Essex County, Virginia, and William’s will is dated 5 Feb 1727/28, naming minor children Nathan, William, James and Phebe. The son, William Jr., also resided in Essex and his will is dated 8 Oct 1774 in Essex County and names sons John, William, Carter, Reuben, Nathan and daughters Caty Fletcher, Foebe Fletcher (apparent sister). After the 1774 death, his sons Reuben, William III and daughter Sally and her husband Charles Breedlove moved to Caswell County, North Carolina (this is abbreviated from the family submission). William III is the son and grandson of William I and II of Essex County, Virginia; his descendant, Mickey Webb Fletcher’s DNA match with James Monroe Fletcher, descendant of Reuben Fletcher (William III’s brother) and both men’s close match with men in the Accomack/Brunswick group further proves that the Essex County Fletchers are closely related if the paper trail is correct.
4b) William Fletcher, (likely grandson of 4a) born 17 May 1751 in VA, married Rebecca, daughter of George M. Moore, ca. 1776, in Granville County, NC. Prior to 1790, they migrated to Rutherford County, NC, where William acquired substantial land holdings, in an area to become first Buncombe, then later Henderson County. In 1812, William and family migrated to Madison County, MS Territory, where he died in 1815. William and Rebecca had the following children: William, Mary, John, Joseph, Elizabeth, Martha, George Moore, Lemuel, James Benjamin, and Lorenzo F. Mickey Webb Fletcher descends from this William through his son John of Henderson Co. NC, who married three times and raised 18 children. (Note that this John’s lineage has up until recently been mistakenly tied to the William of Essex genetic line. Since one of his descendants (Mickey) is Haplogroup R1b1a2, John’s lineage cannot be tied to the William of Essex line, which is Haplogroup I.)
Donald Fox, James Ronald, and Mickey Webb all match 67/67, and their common ancestor should be within 6 to 8 generations from each of them. Rufus Burton matches them 65/67, and a common ancestor for all four is much farther away. Researchers for Donald, James, and Mickey currently speculate that Thomas (b. 1762) and William (b. 1751) likely descend from sons of James (d. 1733), i.e. Richard (b. ca. 1712), James (b. ca. 1721), or William (b. ca. 1730).
Among the other participants, James Monroe Fletcher, Jr. is a 66/67 match to Donald Fox, James Ronald, and Mickey Webb, while David Henry Fletcher is a 65/67 match. Ferrell Eugene is also a 66/67 match. Their mismatches are similar to each other but do not correspond at all to Rufus Burton’s mismatches. James Monroe’s earliest known ancestor is James Fletcher (b. 1785–NC), who married Susan and died in 1850, in Lumpkin Co. GA.

William Fletcher (I Haplogroup) of Essex County, Virginia
This line is in the I Haplogroup, and some records interpretation may conflict with a William Fletcher (R Haplogroup) of Essex Co. VA. See comments under William Fletcher of Accomac Co., VA (et al.) and below.
Born before 1700; d. 1727/28 Southfarnham Parish, Essex Co. VA; m. Martha (Carter?); will lists children William Jr., Nathan, Phoebe, and James. The following subgroups may descend or be related to this William:
1) James Fletcher of Rabun Co. GA, born 1818 NC; resided Rabun Co. 1850 and 1860; m. Jane “Jency” Morgan; children: Reuben, William A., Dicey, James Melvin, Nancy, Silas Coleman, Joseph Hillis, John, Liza, and Andrew Kimsley. Known ancestor of DNA participants Stephen Darrell Fletcher and William Charles Fletcher. There are circumstantial links to William of Essex. See Fletcher Family Research Bulletin, Dec 02.
2) William Fletcher of Southfarmham Parish m. by 1720 Mary Prichard. This William is too old to be William Jr., s/o William d. 1727/28 but a connection is likely. This William may be the William Fletcher whose will was proved in Southfarmham Parish in 1774 by John Fletcher and Charles Breedlove Jr. and whose children are believed to be John*, William (possibly the William Fletcher who was b. 1758 in Stafford Co. VA and d. 1837 in Limestone Co. AL- No, per current thought, this is a Moses of Fauquier, William), Catherine, Sarah (m. Charles Breedlove), Carter, Seborn (or Reuben), Nathan, and Pheby.
*William’s son John is not the John Fletcher of Henderson Co. NC as has long been thought. DNA results show that John of Henderson’s descendants are genetically related to the William of Accomac group.
A close reading of the above and the Red Text insert in the William of Accomac group above will show that one lineage is being used for two different lines. The writer does not have access to the original research, but it is conceivable that there were more than one line of William Fletchers, of different haplogroups, but only clear records for one person. This will require more examination by the participants.
Of the Fletcher DNA participants listed below, Stephen, William and Robert match 37/37; Johnny and Homer match them 36/37; Bart matches them 34/37; Edward matches them 24/25; Bart and Homer match 63/67. Note that these Fletcher men are in Haplogroup I, rather than the normal Fletcher haplogroup of R1b1a2 (M269). Flint Parker Fisher recently joined the Fletcher Project, and his Y-37 matches are at a GD=1 to Robert Eugene, Stephen Darryl, & William Charles, and a GD=2 to Homer Lee and Johnny, and at GD=4 to Paul Robert and Bart Allen Fletcher. Flint Parker Fisher goes back to Henry Fisher (1792-1854), who’s then unmarried mother was Susanna Fisher (1773-1834). Thus there is a strong likelihood of an unknown Fletcher father.

William Fletcher of Kanawha And Monroe Counties, Virginia
William Fletcher, born in England, is said to have been pressed into British service and served nine years before deserting during American Revolution. Five children of first wife; m2. Margaret Spickard with whom he had seven more children. Son James b. 1797 Kanawha Co. VA; m. Elizabeth Tackett. Son Robert b. 1806 Monroe Co. VA; m1. Elizabeth’s sister Keziah Tackett; m2. Elizabeth Messick; m3. Ann Traber. The Tackett and Fletcher families migrated to Henry Co. IN. See Fletcher Family Research Bulletin, Mar 1992; Mar 1994. Note that this is one of only three genetic lines in Haplogroup I. William is in Patrick’s direct line of descent. Although Patrick and Donald match 12/12, their common ancestor is at least one generation, and perhaps more, back from William. This is an I Haplogroup. As members are added to this group, they will likely have different emigrant ancestors. A recent addition, Thomas, has a long line in Ireland, and is likely a branch that never emigrated to the U.S.
