There are two marriages of Rodney S Fletcher on file:
Last name First name(s) Year Location
Fletcher Rodney S 1964 London City, London
Fletcher Rodney S 2001 Chester & Ellesmere Port, Cheshire
The temptation is to rule out the second of these (a) because it it not in the London area of his birth and (b) because he would have been 66 for his first marriage, a tad old. However his mother’s will refers to her daughter-in-law as Nichola Fletcher and this clinches it: in the first marriage Rodney S married a Nicola J Bannister.

There are 10 Fletcher children born with a mother’s maiden name of Bannister from 1964 to 1984.
The full list of Fletcher births with a Bannister mother is:
Last name First name(s) Year Of Birth Location
Fletcher Michelle A 1964 Burnley, Lancashire
Fletcher Thomas A 1965 Prescot, Lancashire
Fletcher Louise Alison 1966 Tonbridge, Kent
Fletcher Paul Edward 1966 Burnley, Lancashire
Fletcher Kay 1966 West Bromwich, Staffordshire
Fletcher Samantha Jayne 1967 Wolverhampton, Staffordshire
Fletcher Timothy Wyndham 1968 Tonbridge, Kent
Fletcher Adam Justin D 1969 Wolverhampton, Staffordshire
Fletcher Hayley Juliet 1971 Wolverhampton, Staffordshire
Fletcher Richard 1971 Dudley, Staffordshire
These births group into Staffordshire, Lancashire and Kent indicating three separate families, one in each area. This impeccable reasoning gives Rodney and Nicola the two Kent children, which is certainly where Roderick’s parents lived:
Last name First name(s) Year Of Birth Location
Fletcher Louise Alison 1966 Tonbridge, Kent
Fletcher Timothy Wyndham 1968 Tonbridge, Kent
So I have entered them up and am saving the price of two birth certificates.
