Flossie was the fourth child of eight children born to her parents. She grew up the first ten years of her life in the Brighton township area, before moving with her parents to Salem township, Washtenaw county, Michigan.

On January 1, 1914, in Salem township, Flossie, at age 16, married Herold R. Davy, a son of James Robert Davy and Ida Jane Myers. Their marriage produced 13 children with 10 of them reaching adulthood. The first seven of their children were born in Salem township. Then the family lived for a few years near Milan, Dundee, and Plymouth (all in southeastern Michigan) before moving to Weidman in northwest Isabella county about 1945. In addition to her own children, Herold and Flossie raised five other children as well.

Flossie's funeral was at 2 p.m. on October 2, 1968, at the Weidman Methodist Church. Arrangements were by the Crittenden Funeral Home of Remus, Michigan. The minister officiating was the Rev. James Linton.
