Find Living Relatives

I believe my dad, John Braid Fletcher, had half siblings in Canada. They shared the same father, Angus M Fletcher from Scotland. My dad was born in 1914 in Johnstone Scotland, and died in 1995, in Cheshire.

If I have living relatives in Canada it would be nice to say hello.

Regards
Ann (nee Fletcher)

Look in search all trees to see whether anyone on GR is researching the names you have.

The chances of anyone connected just happening to see your post must be close to zero

Why do you think any offspring of Angus are in Canada?

What research have you done to lead you to this?

When was Angus born?

Which 'Johnstone' was your father's birthplace?

Renfrewshire.......or Dumfriesshire?

Angus appears in the tree of a GR member named Sandra.

It would be a good idea to try to contact her.............

Thank you. I believe this is the correct "Fletcher". Angus's daughter Isobel (my aunt) told me that her father had a child ( a son I believe) in Canada. I also remember Canadian relatives visiting during my childhood.

Have you looked to see if anyone on genes has the family in their tree?

Did Angus return to Scotland after having the son and did he actually marry out there after his wife died? Have you further information about your Father's parents?

Thank you so much. Katy was indeed my granny, maiden name MacDougal or McDougal. Angus was born in Johnstone Renfrewshire in 1887 and was in the army - but I don't know which regiment. He was a drum major I believe. My granny returned alone to Scotland where my dad was born - also in Johnstone. My grandad returned later! Thank you for your assistance. I'm newish at this and still feeling my way.
