Who was Harry T Phillps born C1881
« on: Sunday 13 November 16 10:49 GMT (UK) »
My relation Ada Mansell born 1885 Aston married in 1911 at Aston Harry T Phillips aged 29 a bachelor occupation stricker his father was Thomas Phillips a plate layer.

I can not find his birth or his death or any sign of him in any census.

Ada died in 1915.

I believe they had a daughter Esther E Phillips born 1912 in Aston.

Do you know what the T stood for in his name?

Harry is often the colloquial name for someone called Henry, as in our own Prince Harry.

Who are the witnesses to the marriage and from what address did he marry?

Have you found Ada in 1911,look at who her lodgers were!!!
