I became interested in this very recently!
On Saturday I traced the Flack line back to Ballybay, Co. Monaghan, Ireland, around 1707ish. Apparently, my g-x6-grandfather came from Ireland in the mid-1700s as a part of an entire Presbyterian congregation that moved when its pastor decided to come to America during a time of increased persecution. The whole body of 130 people came over and settled in the Albany, NY area.
Around 1803 a branch of the family moved to St. Lawrence County and founded a hamlet that still exists, Flackville. I live about an hour and a half from Flackville, so my wife and I will take our kiddos up for a day trip this summer to visit the area. Can't wait! -

I haven't really researched my family tree, but have had members in my long lost family on my mom's side do so.

Well, with cold winter nights, why not research your ancestors
