Did you notice in your previous research that there are only two birth registrations for persons of these initials. One in 1932 the other in 1951 but both of them have the same mother's maiden name.
There is a Fletcher/Dervey marriage in 1913 and another in 1936. But there are no Fletcher/Dervey births registered until 1924.

Edward Fletcher
Hi Chris,
My apologies for not getting back sooner, unfortunately my mother just passed away which will also limit the knowledge I have on this. The 1932 Edwin Fletcher was my Grandfather, son of Edward Fletcher and Catherine Dervey. Edward Fletcher was at some point President of the Hull Old Contemptibles and had plaques at a church in Mons and fought in Ypres too I believe. On the Plaque in Mons, he’s listed as Sergeant of the 4th battalion of the Royal Fusileers. I believe his uncle or brother was also on the Men in Gate.
I’d be curious to know your interest, or was it just because you’d acquired the medals? I’m not sure how they were released as my uncle still has several. I know he’d also kept some flags which were donated to the British Museum when my Grandfather passed.
If possible I would like to buy the medals back if you have them but would also be fascinated by any other information you have? If you have any specific questions I’d be happy to ask my Uncle to see if he knows a little more. You could also contact me directly if that’s easier(I find the format on here a little confusing.

Kindest,
Stu
