I found your web site listing for Jerome Bigelow who married Luella Fletcher on 18 Feb 1868. The listing buts her birth date as 25 March 1838. This is almost certainly incorrect. I have the Fletcher family Bible and it lists her birth as 25 March 1847. Also her brothers journal for 1860 during which year she is a child and not an adult, which she would be if born in 1838.
My information on her mother, Olive Jane (Hunt) Fletcher, is very sketchy. If you have good information about her ancestry, I would be glad to have it......Frank
