I'm not sure how, can anyone help find info on my dad, George Arthur Fletcher, DOB 5/16/41 died 1/27/89 frm CA

Question

His full name was George Arthur Fletcher, but everyone called him 'Art'. He was born in Bath, Mich. in 1941 but moved when he was small to Florida, where I believe he still has 2 brothers. He moved to California, later, met my mom, Mary Margaret Lemos Fletcher. They married in 1970. Had three girls, Leslie, Anne, & Jillian(Me). He died in January of 1989 from ALS ( Lou Gerigs Disease) His siblings are named Ruth, Warren, & Milton. We have all seemed to lose contact over the years. I have not spoken to the brothers since he died in 1989. I was 12 years old. I would love to find any info or family history. His parents names were Floyd Fletcher and Grace (Young) Fletcher.

Answer 2

I'm assuming that you've checked the internet for phone and address listings on his siblings? If not, something as simple as http://www.whitepages.com will let you search by last name and state - so you wouldn't even need to know which city they live in.

Of course, that's just telephone listings, so if they're unlisted/non-published or only have a cellphone or something like Vonage, they won't show up. Still, it's something.

Another couple of ideas - check the county courthouses for places he was born, married, and died and they should be able to provide you with birth certificates, marriage licenses, and maybe death certificates.

Many libraries have genealogy departments and can help you get started in trying to track your ancestry. They can familiarize you with birth/death certificates, census records, etc.

Tracking people down can be tricky if not impossible (without professional help), but it sounds like you've got a lot of good info to go off of - names, dates, and places go a long way toward narrowing down the search.

Good luck!
