NOTES FROM HOWARD SHARP BENNION'S JOURNAL CONCERNING ANN GRIFFITH AND FLINT MOUNTAIN:
Monday, June 21, 1937: . . ."I shall go from there [Cilcain] to Northop, the parish in which Flint Mountain and Flint were located in the time of Ann Griffith. Page 38.

"About Flint Mountain.  It is a scattered farm village from 1 1/2 to 2 miles to Flint and 1 to 1 1/2 miles from Northop.  It is just in the sharp gully or small canyon at the break of the fairly level ground between there and Northop and the steeper slopes draining down to the sea at Flint.  It is very pictuesque.  The houses and gardens or crofts are set in the hillsides.  The farms of many houses are back toward Northop and of others on the flatter slopes toward Flint and west of Flint Mountain.  It has always been a part of Flint parish as long as the present inhabitants can remember.  I suppose the farmers from Flint Mountain went down hill to the seaport village to sell there [sic] products and trade and that when Flint became a separate parish, it was made a township thereof.  Two or three of the farms in the scattered village are in Northop parish and I suppose always were.

"I think the birth of Anne Griffith will be found in the Flint Parish records. Later entries may require searching the Northop records, but the identifications of names must first be made in Flint before one can know what Northop names to follow back further.  (Ann was located in the Hawarden Parish Records."  Page 60-61.  Have not yet located her parents.
