William was born about 1791 or 1797 in Virginia. His father came from Ireland and was stowed away on a ship. It could be old Mr. Flinn at Flinn's Station or one of his sons. My Grand Father William Flinn was born in Virginia and sold as an indentured slave. He married the owners daughter "Annie Hutchinson" and they went to Tennessee. They settled near Gainsville in a place they named "Flinn Lick". He had 4 sons, Andrew, James W., George W. and Hiram Jackson. Hiram Jackson is my Grand Father. They all moved to Hardin County, Illinois in 1854. They are buried in Hardin County, Illinois. Any info about William Flinn's father and brothers would be appreciated. Jim Flynn 8593 N.
