| Notes |
Married:
- 'Sketch of the History of the Fletcher Family 1896 by John Wesley Fletcher (1838-1913) of Detroit, Mich. Additions 1936 by Rev. Wm. Percy Fletcher. Begins "Grandfather Fletcher's father Archibald Fletcher married Flora McNab in Argyleshire, Scotland and their children from memory were Archibald, Alexander, Flora, Duncan, James, Ann and Elizabeth. The Fletchers, Campbells and MacNabs intermarried for centuries and the Fletchers wer thus allied to the Clans Campbell and MacNab."----(omitted here Fletcher name origin and meaning)---"Archibald Fletcher and his wife came from Scotland to new Jersey in 1769 in which year our grandfather (Alexander) was born." '
—The Ancestral Lines of Chester Everts Howell, by Jessie Howell Finch, 1796
A note was included by JHF: The Corwin family into which Alexander married came from N.J. but so far records of the Fletchers have not been found in that state (Alexander's marriage to Rachel Corwin).
Additional Note: The papers by John Wesley Fletcher called Sketch of the History of the Fletcher Family, was destroyed by water damage, and unfortunately thrown out rather than seeking restoration.
