Surname also spelled "Flint." A life-long Harvard College tutor and supply preacher who, it appears, was never called to church of his own. He received his A.B. from Harvard College in 1693 and his M.A. in 1695. He often visited Boston, and in Braintree had a home away from home in a two-story addition to the mansion of his brother-in-law, Edmund Quincy. He attended the Congregational church in Cambridge pastored by William Brattle and then Nathaniel Appleton (1693–1784). His father Josiah Flynt (1645-1680) and grandfather Henry Flynt (d. 27 April 1668) were also prominent congregationalist minsters in the Cambridge and Boston area.
