Also consider that Myra may have had a son born out of wedlock before she married Reuben Fletcher.

There ar a few Critchett/Chritchett births.........all born in Portsmouth Hampshire though.

In all probability then the son may have been the one to register his mothers death. If that was the case a copy of her death certificate would give you his name and maybe even his address at the time.

Researching:
Don't put off until tomorrow doing what you can do today. If you like doing it today you can do it again tomorrow. Be kind to your children for it is they who will decide which care home you end up in.

Look for birth of a Fletcher, Mothers maiden name Critchett post marriage date in the area the couple married.

Look at www.freebmd.org.uk A free site

EDIT NOTE:

I have just taken a look myself but nothing is showing up with that combination in England or Wales. I have confirmed that Critchett was Myra's maiden name so if they did have a son then might he have been adopted rather than a natural child?
