Hi again, he is listed as Brian on the 1861 census in England and 1870,1880,and 1892 in Brooklyn. Also on his eleven childrens birth or bapt. Naturalization and the deed for his property besides his childrens death records and their Social Security applications. Oh I forgot to mention his sister Mary Flynn married a Rodger Ryan and they also settled in Brooklyn. They are all buried together in Holy Cross in Brooklyn. I did have one bit of luck I found Mary and Rodgers marriage record in Kilmallock Limerick but no further info on the Flynn's. that is where i zeroed in until i came across this Freeman from Mayo. I haven't thrown in the towel yet. Thanks, Dolores
