Hi Cathy, Not absolutely sure, but probably Michael Flynn, as that has been the eldest son right up until my own brother, again without an exact date and place of birth it is a useless task as it is such a common name. I must get back to my Wexford research and see if I can find where they were from, family rumour has it as Connemara, but which bit I don't know. Reputedly two brothers came east during or just after the famine and another brother went to America. None of this is verified and all those who could give me further info are long gone sadly. We now of course have an English branch of Flynns. They are small in number though, My brother's son and his son are the only males.
Happy hunting!
Molly
