I have a Peter Smith Fletcher born in 1837 in Birmingham, he marries Ann Stone in 1855, I can find him on the 1861 with 2 children Anne 6 and William 6months. In 1870 he has 4 children all baptised on the same day 21 August at St Thomas's Church in Birmingham. Then he and the family completely disappear. There is no obvious death for him.

Does anyone have access to passenger lists or the Ellis island site as I think they must have emigrated. I would be grateful for any help. All his other brothers and their families stay put in Birmingham except for Daniel James Duffield Fletcher but that is another story.

Thank you in advance Chris

Unfortunately the outgoing passenger lists on ancestry do not start until 1891.

Ellis Island records don't start until 1892.

Peter & Martha are on your other thread. Peter emigrated 1866 so evidently not yours.
