For twenty-five years (1760-1785) he was at Madeley, was this the one in Shropshire or Staffodshire? Saga City 16:59, 6 June 2006 (UTC). Shropshire, in area covered by unitary authority of Telford and Wrekin.Cloptonson (talk) 14:50, 15 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Tutoring sons of Thomas Hill[edit]

I have dated start of that work to 'autumn 1751' on strength of cited book, a biography of one of sons ('A Shropshire Squire; Noel Hill, First Lord Berwick' (1989)) which was based on much documentary research by its writer. I allow for fact Britain was then using Julian Calendar, which was ahead of the Gregorian adopted the following year.Cloptonson (talk) 14:57, 15 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Socialism[edit]

The first part of An equal check to Pharisaism and antinomianism, By John William Fletcher 1774 page 21, is the earliest known use of the term socialism, although socialist appeared in 1738. Scotch Presbyterian eloquence display'd: or, The folly of their teaching discover'd By Gilbert Crokatt, John Monroe., page 69. i would like to add the passage from his book unless there be objection.

Assessment comment[edit]

The comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:John William Fletcher/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following several discussions in past years, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.

Midway through the article it seems to start over again with introductory content similar to that found at the beginning. I may try to excise some of this and place it at the beginning with the other introductory material, omitting whatever is redundant. Spiritquest (talk) 16:39, 9 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

John William Fletcher is not of “French Huguenot stock”[edit]

He is clearly stated of being born in Switzerland. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C7:9C97:5D01:39B3:AA7D:AADE:BC40 (talk) 20:25, 22 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
