Don't see George Fletcher on 1851 census but some of them have been lost or destroyed.

Looks like there was only William R and Mary C for children of George and Elizabeth.

Chances are they moved to the US. I don't see any births listed for them on Ancestry.ca
I was hoping that one of the marriage registrations might have had their mother's maiden name but no luck.
