Look-Up Request please/James PHILLIPS.
« on: Wednesday 11 April 07 09:51 BST (UK) »

Would anyone on here be kind enough to do a Look-up for me please for:

James PHILLIPS, born, (Approx) 1864 in Pembroke.

On the 1891 census for Wales he is living in Llangyfelach, (Swansea) with his wife Sarah Ann (née REES) and their children Evan, (3yrs) and David, (4 months).

I've been unable to find a Birth entry for him, or indeed to find him on any of the earlier Censuses.

Any help welcomed.

Cheers, Romilly.

Hi Osprey,

Many thanks for all the help!!

I would imagine that James Phillips worked at the same Tin Works as my Great Grandfather, Evan Rees, & that Sarah Ann met him through that link. (Also they lived nearby in Morriston).

I will try tracing them forwards now, - starting with Evan Rees PHILLIPS.

Cheers, Romilly.

I think the Bird has the correct James.

Following the one who was born in St Davids, he appears to stay in the county.

1901 Census
27, Llangfelach Road

James Phillips 35 Scruff-man in Tin Plate Works born Pembroke, Milford
Sarah Ann 38 born Morriston
David Phillips 11 born Morriston
Wm. George Phillips 9 born Morriston
John Phillips 6 born Morriston

Milford would be Haverfordwest Registry Office, as you have both parents names it might be worth giving them a call  Undecided

or they have an email registrars(AT)pembrokeshire.gov.uk
just replace the (AT) with a @

Oh dear, 'Scruff-man' in the Tin Works sounds a bit of a ragamuffin job Wendi! Grin

Best Wishes, Romilly.

Hi Merc2081,

Thanks for the Marriage Ref, - yes, they are shown on the 1871 Census details that Osprey posted.

David Phillips must have died at a young age, as Catherine is a widow by the 1881 Census.

Cheers, Romilly.

(I have a photo, taken in Swansea in 1926; which I believe shows some of the Phillips cousins, - with my father & his brothers. I think that Evan Rees Phillips might be the one on the left/back row).

you can't attach to a look-up board. Think it's to make sure no-one puts chunks of copyright material on.
You could attach to the main county board though!
