Mary Dillon/Dillane nee Flynn - Kerry/Tralee
Looking for information on the Flynn family thought to be from Tralee or surrounds, particularly Mary Flynn born around 1860. Mary was the first wife of my great-grandfather Patrick Dillon who she married in 1894 in London; they quickly returned to Kerry for the birth of their first child.
Mary's husband Patrick was a "horse-trainer" and his short biography has been submitted here. Mary's father Patrick Flynn was also a "horse-trainer" according to their marriage certificate. Mary died shortly after the birth of her third child George. I think I have a death register record but I cannot find any evidence of a burial. I would really appreciate any information as I am attempting to write a family history and Mary is a vital part.
More recently, through newspaper archives I have found that Mary Flynn had an uncle Michael who must have been born around 1818. He lived to be over 90 and was known to be a great raconteur and was still following hounds around Tralee in his late 80's.
