Note

Note:

A James Flynn appears in the Surry Co Census, 1810, p.660

1 male under 10, 1m male age 26-45 [born bef 1784]. 2f under 10, 2f 10-16, 1f 26-45.

Other information about James says his mother was Mary which would indicate he was the son of Hezekiah and Mary Elliott Flinn. His birthday is given as 24 Dec 1781, making it even more likely he is a son of Hezekiah and not Laughlin, but he could also fit among the children of Laughlin if some of the other births are "off".

Evelyn Cook Hall gives a marriage of James Flynn to Nancy Martin on 15 Jan 1796, Surry Co N.C. - that would be too young for this James but could be the James of the 1810 census.

FAR FLUNG FLINNS has him married to Elizabeth Spier in March of 1816 but gives no further information. This marriage is from the NC Marriage Bonds and the bond was made in Surry Co. Oswell Phillips was Bondsman. A John Flynn also married Mary Spier, Bond dated 10 May 1820, Surry Co, Jesse Fleming was Bondsman.
