I Think it should be known that Faugh Ballaugh!

He was Patrick Flynn, born about 1841 in Roscommon, Ireland. He married a Margaret Croke in New York in 1875 and sailed for Australia the same year. > > Could some kind soul tell me how I can verify this information or search to see if he is listed somewhere? I do not know who he fought for or where he enlisted, but am assuming that as he sailed from New York he would have enlisted in a state nearby and presumably fought for the north. > > Would be grateful for any advice. > > Many thanks, > > Susan Gandy > Blue Mountains, NSW, Australia > > > > ==== CIVIL-WAR-IRISH Mailing List ==== > "Faugh a Ballaugh!"
