Find Ancestors

Would someone with world wide ancestry be willing to do a look up for me on the US census please.

Joseph Edward Fletcher.

Born England, Emigrated to USA late 1860's.
Parents are Charles Fletcher & Harriet Beanland.
Siblings Jane Elizabeth & Frederick Charles Fletcher.

In Providence R I in 1880 census.

At some point he married (1)Mary Manton
(2) Marie Theresa Dollan.

What I hope to find in either the 1890 or 1900 census
the names of any children if of course he had any.

This is turning out to be the ultimate American dream..a real rags to riches story.

Thank you. Margaret.
