Any one know anything about Merrit Flint?

I am looking for information on Merritt Flint. I know he lived in Montcalm County between 1855 and 1860. He bought 120 acres around Crystal, Michigan. He had a son name Milton Flint. His wife was Antionette Flint. He died around 1860. He is my 3rd great grandfather

Thank you

It would be easier for the FS Community to help if you could provide your ggg-grandfather's person identification number.

If he does not have one yet, please review these articles:
