CKTennant Posted 18 August , 2020 Share Posted 18 August , 2020 Hello, I am new here. I am trying to find info on a great uncle who was a Sergeant in RDS see marriage cert attached. I believe he served and travelled to India where one of his children was born. Are files available on line, I am trying to find info on his parents. I only know that his father was Michael. His wife was Mary McDonald. They had four children, Michael, Christina, Kathleen and Anna. Any help much appreciated. C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corisande Posted 18 August , 2020 Share Posted 18 August , 2020 This is his MIC - you can get it free on Nat Archives, or a better copy with Ancestry Subscription It shows he transferred to N Staffs Regt later in WW1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CKTennant Posted 18 August , 2020 Author Share Posted 18 August , 2020 Thats probably my tree you are looking at.... I have a Michael Flynn that was my g grandfathers brother...... and relations of the Michel Flynn born 1889 is related to me... so I am confused. We are related somehow.... maybe a cousin of my g grandfather...

George Rayner Posted 18 August , 2020 Share Posted 18 August , 2020 (edited) Corisande, 7075086 appears to have a different birth date to OP posting of 13.11.88 Full Name: M Flynn Birth Date: 6 Sep 1889 Rank: Army Other Ranks, Discharges for 1921-1939 Service Number: 7075086 Reference Number: ADT000220524 Conflict Period: World War I Served for: United Kingdom but of course this may be the correct one and she has followed the wrong baptism record. Anybody find a Michael Flynn birth for 6.9.89? George Edited 18 August , 2020 by George Rayner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
