Nothing on it mentions the name Leo but even tho it's faint, I can read she was 25 yrs. old and born in Ireland, he 26, born in Long Island. Mary was a clerk, Henry, a laborer. Both residents of Scranton and married at the Cathedral. No witnesses were listed. The marriage day is very faint but if you need it, I'll try to read it. Her parents were Michael Flynn and Mary Flynn. I copied a few Flynn marriage licenses awhile back while in Scranton, trying to trace my Flynn family. Michael W., John and Mary Flynn born in Hudson, NY of Michael Flynn & Mary Holloran, later found Michael W. in Scranton. I've been trying to find the proper John and Mary Flynn since. As yet unsuccessful. We've shared info in the past. Nice to see you're still digging. I hope to again study old Scranton newspapers in the near future from here in Michigan at the library, just reading for gossip & so forth. If you find anything conclusive on the above, please let me know. Happy St. Patrick's day. Mary Casey ************************************** AOL now offers free email to everyone.
