Research Notes
I have been unable to find the marriage record, it is possible that they married in Scotland. If this is the correct birth registration for Margaret ([7]) then Kate's maiden name is Duers. I have been unable to find a Fletcher/Duers marriage either, I assume it is in Scotland. I do not have access to the 1911 Scotland Census to look for Kate and John.
