What it says

The Brunswick list includes William Flyn, 60, a “reduced farmer” of Mallow, Co. Cork, with John, 24, Daniel, 20, Mary, 16, Johanna, 13, and Nancy, 11. The Peterborough museum’s list has “FLYN, William | Died in Emily 12 Sept./26.” The same ship carried an unrelated party, Cornelius Flyn, 43, who settled in Douro. No Ann Murray is on the Robinson lists.

From the research files (research/dwyer/Dwyer_Master_Research.md and research/dwyer/Flynns_of_Emily_Township.md, October 2026): the John of this list is very probably John Flynn, husband of Ann Murray and father of James Murray Flynn. William, John and Daniel were each located on a Robinson half-lot in Emily on 24 Nov 1825, William and John on the two halves of lot 11, concession 10 (land index), and in 1846 John Flynn of Emily took over William’s half-lot through the Heir and Devisee Commission.
