Hello, I'm looking for information on my great grandfather Thomas Arthur Flynn, born abt 1878 in Missouri. He married a Laura B. born abt 1877 Missouri. They had one child, Mildred, born in 1906 in Albany, Missouri. I found Thomas and Laura in the Kansas City area in the 1930 census. I found a sworn affidavit of birth (in lieu of a birth certificate, prepared in Arkansas) made in 1940 by Laura that stated Thomas died 17 Feb 1939 in Los Angeles, Ca. Does anyone recognize these folks? I'd appreciate any information on them, Thanks, Steve in California

Bridget Isabel was born abt 1854 in New York, died 1906 Both are buried at St Mary's Cemetary in Adair MO. Kids were James Edward, John T, Agnes, and maybe a Matthew. I am pretty sure that John's parents are Terrence and Mary Flinn (Flynn), both born in Ireland somewhere. I know that Terrence immigrated to the US in 1848, but I dont know from where or port of entry. Does anyone know this line of Flynn's? thanks! Sean please email me at seanagainflynn@yahoo.com

Greetings from Mandurah, W Australia. I am researching the family of John Flynn, born 1825 at Cahir, the son of John. On 4 June 1855 John married a widow, Catherine Hogan (nee Foley) born c1832. John served at home with the 3rd regiment for almost 6 yrs, and then with the 49th regiment at the battles of Inkerman and Alma until he was wounded. Any help at all with the name of John's mother would be very much appreciated. All the best Lorraine

Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/4dW.2ACEB/1470 Message Board Post: Dear Listers: I am looking for any information concerning PATRICK DORGAN (DARGAN) and his wife, ANN FLYNN (c. 1830-1886). PATRICK came from Ballybraher (Carrigkilter), Ballycotton, Co. Cork. I don't know anything about ANN FLYNN. I would like to confirm: 1. the birthplace, baptism and marriage of PATRICK DORGAN and ANN FLYNN 2. the parents of PATRICK DORGAN and ANN FLYNN I would love to hear from any listers familiar with this DORGAN and FLYNN family. Sincerely, Bill Dorgan Here is all I know about PATRICK DORGAN and ANN FLYNN: Patrick DARGAN (DORGAN) was born on a farm in Ballybraher, Ballycotton, County Cork on or about 1830. Ballybraher is also known as Carrigkilter. His father, whose name we do not know, owned or leased this farm. I have been unable to trace the deeds. This was, of course, the era between the Penal Laws (1690s) and Roman Catholic Emancipation (1829). Catholics were not allowed to "own" land nor "vote". All five children of Patrick DARGAN (DORGAN) and his wife, ANN FLYNN, were born on this farm. Later, his daughter, MARY DORGAN lived on this farm with her husband, Jerry Healy. One of the children of MARY DORGAN and Jerry Healy, John Healy, married Margaret Grahame and had five children: Elizabeth, Jerry and David (twins), John Christopher, and James. Elizabeth, David and John Christopher still live on the farm in Ballybraher. James died in 1994 and Jerry died in July 2003. CHILDREN OF PATRICK DARGAN (DORGAN) AND ANN FLYNN: 1. DAVID DORGAN was born about 1853 in Ballybraher, Ballycotton, County Cork, Ireland. He married Elizabeth Ahearne who was born about 1853. David DORGAN and his wife Elizabeth Ahearne had no children. But, they raised David DORGAN's nephew (his sister Mary's son, John Healy) and they raised Elizabeth Ahearne's niece (her sister's daughter, Margaret Grahame). John Healy and Margaret Grahame later married and had five children: Elizabeth, Jerry and David (twins), John Christopher, and James. All five children never married. Elizabeth, David and John Christopher are still on the farm in Ballybraher. James died in 1994 and Jerry died in July 2003. The Irish Census of 1901 lists David as the "Head of the Household" in Carrigkilter, Ballycotton, County Cork, Ireland. All persons living in his household were listed as "Roman Catholics". According to the census, his house had three rooms in which four people lived: David, a "farmer", age 48; his wife, Elizabeth, age 48; his "Farm Servant", Jeremiah Cronin, age 23; and his "General Servant Domestic", Mary Hassett, age 22. Some of the descendants of Jeremiah Cronin and Mary Hassett still live in the area, but they are no relation to the DORGAN family. 2. MICHAEL DORGAN, born about 1855 in Ballybraher, Ballycotton, County Cork. Michael DORGAN married a woman whose last name was Guard. She was from Ballynamona, Shannagarry, Co. Cork. They had four children: Lena married William (Billy) O'Brien and had no children; Mary married Billy's brother, John O'Brien and had no children; Patrick married Ann Mellerick; William (Bill) did not marry. All four are deceased. Patrick DORGAN and Ann Mellerick had five children: Michael, emigrated to the USA, but it is not known where; Phillie, Ella, Annie, all deceased and Liam. Liam is the only one left out of five children. Liam has three sons and two daughters. Liam once owned DORGAN'S Pub in Cloyne. It is now under new management and the name is changed. 3. MARY DORGAN, born about 1856 in Ballybraher, Ballycotton, County Cork. Mary DORGAN married Jerry Healy of Lisanley, Cloyne, County Cork and had five children: John married Margaret Grahame; Patrick (Pad); Michael (Mick), Ann (never married) and an unknown female who married a man named Meaney of Aghada, County Cork. 4. ELIZABETH DORGAN, born about 1858 in Ballybraher, Ballycotton, County Cork. Elizabeth DORGAN married John Shinnick of Ballycatto, Cloyne, County Cork. They had three children: Edmund, Elizabeth, and Hannah. 5. PATRICK J. DORGAN, born April 26, 1861 in Ballybraher, Ballycotton, County Cork, Ireland; died December 09, 1937 in Cranston, Rhode Island. Patrick J. Dorgan is my great-grandfather. He is the bridge between Ireland and Rhode Island ... the first known of this DORGAN family to "come over" to the USA. from: bdorgan@bellsouth.net

She lived in NC last I found. I believe that she died after Sep. 1924. She would have been my great great grandmother. Her children were Ellen, Zonnie, Pauline, Paul, Martha, George, Henry, Eugine, Nathaniel, and Mark. These children are in no particular order and there were 2 sets of twins. Most of the children lived in SC upon death. I found her in the 1920 census but, she was not in the 1930 census with her family. This is why I believe that she died after 1924 and before 1930. If anyone out there has information it would be greatly appreciated. from: melanie.goy@us.army.mil Thanks
