There has been much discussion concerning the name Flohr and its iterations on census and other records. Daniel by his own hand on his last will and testament signed as Floore, whereas his father Daniel Sr as well as previous generations used Flohr.

They appear in the 1850 and 1860 census of Springfield, Mahoning County, Ohio. He was a farmer. And she was a mother with at least 16 children!
