Bev - are the below from Concord VRs?

Here's the info I've dug up so far on this family:

John Fletcher (son of Corp. Samuel and Elizabeth (Wheeler) Fletcher) b.
Concord, Mass. 26 Aug 1692; d. 1749 Middlesex County, Mass.; m. circa
Mary (?) (one person thinks her surname is GOBLE, but haven't found
anything else about her).

Children of John and Mary (?) Fletcher:
1. Martha Fletcher, b. 16 May 1716, Concord, Mass. (possibly the Martha
who m. 5 Mar 1732 in Weston, Mass., Solomon Whitney, s. of Nathaniel and
Mercy (Robinson) Whitney.)
2. John Fletcher, b. 31 Jan 1718, Concord, Mass.
3. Abigail Fletcher, b. 20 Jul 1720, Concord, Mass. (possibly the
Abigail who m. 20 Oct 1741 in Weston, Mass., Lt. Samuel Whitney, s. of
William and Martha (Peirce) Whitney.)
4. Elisha Fletcher, b. circa 1724 (total guess on date - name from
Robert Ward's message)
5. David Fletcher, b. 18 Jan 1726; m. 6 Jul 1749 Jerusha Wheeler.

Sources:
Fletcher, Edward H., "Fletcher Genealogy" article, NEHGR Vol 22 pp
389-392 (Oct 1868); and
Fletcher, Edward H., "The Descendants of Robert Fletcher of Concord,
Mass." (1881, Boston)

Maybe there's another Fletcher book. I'll see what NEHGS has in their
lending library.

I found an Abigail Fletcher of Concord married a Jonathan Bradstreet of
Lunenburgh, Oct 15, 1751 by Rev. Mr. Daniel Bliss
I also found a David Fletcher son of John and Mary born Jan 18, 1726/7
born
in Concord.
Under Worcester County, in Lunenburg, I found Jonathan this:
Purpose of marriage between Jonathan Bradstreet of Lunenburg and
Abigail
Fletcher of Concord was entered Sept 17, 1761
Also there was a Jonathan Bradstreet of Lunenburg that married an Olive
Wheelock of Leominter were married July 2, 1741 by Mr. David Stearns,

This is all I can find right now. Hope it helps.
