The original flemings came from Flanders (of course), and emigrated to Scotland. They are a Clan sept of the Murrays. The first Flemings in Ireland came with Strongbow to Co. Meath. So, the Flemings are Scotch-Irish.
William was a cobbler.
The Buchanans are also Scottish.
William was born in Dublin.
Most of the records in Dublin were destroyed shortly after.
That's all I've got.
