Jim, I went to the Niagara Falls Public Library on Tuesday June 19th 2007 and checked the City Directories for Francis (Frank) D. Flynn 1890 through 1896 with no success. I also checked the index cards in the History Department for marriage, death, and obituaries and that was also fruitless. Good luck in your search, Helen ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim" <[email protected]> To: "NYNIAGAR- FOLKS" <[email protected]>; "NY NIAGARA" <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, June 17, 2007 10:57 AM Subject: [NYNIAGAR] Francis (Frank) D.

Helen- Thank you very much for doing that research for me. I really appreciate it. Thanks to you that avenue has been successfully closed and I can explore other possibilities.
