SAINT ANDREW FLEETHAM

Effects under 400

13 December 1879

Administration with the will of the Personal Estate of Saint Andrew Fleetham, late of Hartlepool in the county of Durham, Grocer who died 2 Dec 1874 at Hartlepool, left unadministered by Jane Fleetham, widow the relict, the sole Executrix, was granted at Durham to Thomas Henry Fleetham of Hartlepool, Stationer, the son, one of the Resduary Legalees. Submitted former. Granted at Durham May 1875.

Having started this page I realize it's time I put some more effort into this family!!

The first known Fleetham in our tree, to date, is one Robert Fleetham who I estimate to be born around the late 1740's. His parentage is a bit of guesswork as Ainderby Steeple is a nearby parish.

As at Ainderby Steeple Church is:

Michael son of Thomas and Sarah c. 9 Apr 1751

William son of William and Jane c. 10 Apr 1752

Alice daughter of William and Jane c. 14 Nov 1730
