I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini running Jellybean 4.1.2. I have tried various versions of Flash player, all of which work on the stock browser, but none of them will work with the latest version of Firefox (22.0) or Firefox Beta. Plugins are not disabled in the Firefox settings. I am doing something wrong or does the newest version of Firefox for Android no longer support Flash?

Have you installed Flash from http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html#main_Archived_versions the latest version of Flash for your phone is "Flash Player 11.1 for Android 4.0 (11.1.115.63)".

I've installed that one and tried a load of older versions of well which won't work with Firefox.

I think it's fixed now. Turns out I was being a bit stupid and hadn't killed Firefox before I checked to see if Flash was working.
