I am helping my lady friend with her family genealogy. She married an American-Raymond Flewwelin bor 17 dec 1935 in Briar Cliff,New York State. I believe his father Henry Clayton Flewwellin married Alice Jane Andrews. Living in Westchester County,New York. Ray was first married to Linda [?] and they had a daughter Linda, both sadly died in a motor accident. Ray was a police dog handler serving in the American Forces. He spent time in Korea, and he was with the American forces at Alconbury,UK. He married Josephine Reader from Northamptonshire.
Raymond had brothers Donald,LLoyd and sister's Alice Jane and Marion. Any information welcomed on Births,death,marriages of the Flwellin family ,spouses. Thank you. Ken

Irving Flewwellin was married twice - the first marriage to Carrie, daughter of Mr & Mrs Chas Bennett, Ossining. Making there home in Croton Lake. Details published in the Mount Kisco NY Recorder 1886 (did not give a date but believe it to be November 1886)
The Mount Kisco Recorder then published an Obituary on July 7 th 1887 for Mrs Irving Flewwelling aged 19 years. The cause of death was consumption. Funeral servive at the ME Church by the Rev Newton Wray and W F Compton.

There are some entries on the Westchester County marriage index that might fit this family: http://www.westchestergov.com/recordcenter/marriages.asp?NAV=3&pageNum=F
And there are some folks on the Surrogate records index that might match as well: http://www.westchestergov.com/recordcenter/Surrogates.asp?NAV=1&pageNum=F

Hi!
I gather from your profiles that your primary interest is families from Wales. The Flewwellin's were, as the name suggests, likely descended from someone named llewelyn (certainly not the prince's as some have contended, more likely llewelyn the shepherd rather than llewelyn the prince). I feel, however, that it is unlikely that anyone from the family has seen Wales for 500 years. I suspect that they followed the sheep and cattle trading routes into Warwickshire, probably Stratford-upon-Avon, but that is conjecture. More on this and the probable history of the Flewelling's (the usual, but not only, spelling in North America) is at:
http://thomasamurray1.tripod.com/ancestors.htm
This was in answer to a question which asked what I knew about the ancestors of Thomas Flewelling and Hannah Smith. Not much, really, and not really all of it, but a beginning. Thomas and Hannah were ancestors of all Flewelling's, Flewwelling's, Flewellin's, Flewellyn's, Fleuelling's, etc. north of Cape May, New Jersey. There were variations of the name in the southern states (especially Virginia and the Carolina's) but I believe they are unrelated.
In the instance you seek, your querent is descended from the Quaker Branch (the Loyalist branches went first to New Brunswick, Canada) of the family, that of Robert Flewelling (son of Thomas and Hannah) and his wife, Maplet, of North Castle, Westchester Co, NY. More on them is at:
http://robertflewelling.tripod.com/robert_flewelling.htm
especially, in this case:
http://robertflewelling.tripod.com/family_of_robert_flewwellin__son_of_robert_and_maplet_flewelling.htm
This includes Isaiah and Hannah (Lyon) Flewelling, their son, Barnabus Flewwellin, etc. The spelling, Flewwellin, especially marks this family. What you have been given so far links your friend to what I have so far.
After about 300 years on this continent the family is found from the Arctic to the Rio Grande and coast-to-coast.
Thomas.
