Surnames: Flinn Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/2V.2ADI/309 Message Board Post: I'm hunting for Raymond Barry Flinn, I have very little information on him. This is what I do know. He was adopted by Fredrick Fay Flinn & Nova Jane (Smith) Flinn. He was left at her daycare center, Mama Flinn's Playhouse in Oakland, CA; some time in 1941 or later. He may still be alive, we don't know. He ran away just before they moved back to Indiana in 1961 or 1962. I guess he didn't want to leave CA. He may have changed his last name, I just don't know. I don't know his bith parents names or anything. I don't have info on the adoption, but I'm looking into it now. If anyone came help, please contact me
