The one in Northampton does look very much an 'Executive' type home - or someone that has inherited lots of dosh- very small cul-de -sac 5 houses in total, and LLadro on the window sills...Double garage, probably to park the Merecedes in, I would love it to be your dad, but i would doubt it, like Chris, not the right vibes... However if you want me to pop an note thru the door, just say - he can ring me if you want! Jess

I've been..... Went to my libriary, elec roll not there of course!It is held in the main libriary of the next town, which is the other side of the village in question. So, as i am passing the village, decide to stop and have a look anyway. Wow - If he isn't your birth father please can i claim him as mine? :-)))))))) Big house BUT has only been built about a year - so if he is on last years electorol roll for the village i'd be surprised, however this may help in the tracking process - any that have moved that - appear last year or two and not this? Have you any idea what his occupation was? The people that live in this house are i would say 'Professionals' - not manual workers. I would guess that the purchase price for the house would have been £300-400 and was , well, very des res! I am more than willing to go to Wellingbororugh for you to look at electoral roll if you wish - maybe the wonders of Christopher can glean something fom my note and suggest where next. ~Jess~ Anything , anytime, let me know

HI Sandra, Have you elimniated the 4 with the middle inital first, normally you are suppposed to put your full name down on the electoral roll, though some people dont. I would rule them out first,(even though they are not local you said he moved around the country) if Christopher can do this with dob, then concentrate on the nearest to where you know his family where.

Sandra - i am totally confused - mike sent me message with an address i believe he sourced for you- maybe wrong- which is different to the one you are telling me. There are two roads of a very similar name locally and guess you need the right one. Mike say's its 'The D........' You say its ' D....... Cresent' They are not far apart geographically (about 3 miles) but a world apart in the type of housing.One is a small olde worlde cottage and the other an ex-council terrace!! ~Jess~

HI These are the 4 entries for the name Terence D Fletcher in the uk, have also sent a list of all Terence Fletchers in case, you can rule out a lot as they have the wrong middle inital. Good Luck! Sheila
