Edward Phillips, on the "Skylark" in 1881 was my G Grandfather. Is he connected to your family? Edward's father was Thomas Phillips & his mother was Elizabeth Jane, "late White , formerly Horne".
His youngest son also joined the RN & was "loaned" to the RAN. He arrived in Sydney on the First Fleet. That is the "First Fleet of the RAN" & never returned to England. He served with the RAN in both world wars.
