He was born in Harden County Ohio and came to Homer in 1940. He owned and operated Floyd L Lynn Produce Co with headquarters in Homer. The firm farmed 1,400 acres of muck land in Albion, Lee and Clarence townships in Calhoun County and shipped the produce as far south as Georgia and Florida. The company principal products were onions, potatoes and carrots. Lynn was a former vice president of the onion grower's division of the Michigan Muck Farmers Association. He was elected four times as "'onion king" of Michigan for the large yields per acre. The last time he received this honor in 1963 he had produced 1,784 50-pound bags on a single acre when the average that year was 600 bags per acre. When he purchased his first farm at Homer in 1940 the soil was so poor that Michigan State University soil experts advised him to abandon the property. He spent four years fertilizing the land before the business had a profit. He was a 32nd degree Mason and attended the Homer First Presbyterian Church. Survivors include a daughter Mrs Jerome (Betty J) McNamara : two grandchildren, and brothers, Robert E. Lynn , Victor Lynn of Alger Ohio Services will be held at 3:30 p.m. Saturday at First Presbyterian Church.
