• Notes

  NOTES: Please take this link upwards to father Alexander WITH CAUTION. There are a LOT of Flacks in this same geographical area around the same time here - BUT - We know that Alexanders daughter was Rachel Flack and Rachel's daughter was Lucinda Sheldon. - Lucinda Sheldon married Harmon Stafford - Harmon Stafford's father was Thomas Stafford - Thomas Stafford's brother was Stephen Stafford - Stephen Staffords daughter was Sarah Stafford and finally - Sarah Stafford married Robert Flack here. ~ Its a tenuous link I know, but with lack of anything else at the moment to prove linkage to show which Flack is the parent (Alexander or WIlliam), then with Rachel definitely being Alexanders daughter, I plumping for Robert also being Alexanders son. If you have proof to the contrary - then please let me know.
