Phillips family in Kent

[barbarai]

I am looking for any information on John Phillips who married Elizabeth (late Watkins  formerly Williams, this is what it says on her son's birth certificate in 1838) possibly in Chepstow.  Their children William b.?, John b. 1816, Chepstow. Edward b. 1815-17 Chepstow. James b. 1822, Itton.  Eliza Susannah b. 1831, Itton.  Emma b. 1833 Itton. Charles b. 1838 Itton.

william was married to Mary Ann Gordon in 1843 Woolwich, Kent.  Most of the brothers were living in Kent at this time.  We don't know much about the Phillips family  in Kent so any help would be appreciated.  Thank you.

Hi,

Just noticed no one has replied to your post.

Woolwich, for some unknown reason, seems to be in the London Census sets.

If you have a lok at this post  http://www.rootschat.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=8189.0 I supplied the contact details for a lady that might be able to do lookups in Woolwich area.

Thanks Adrian,
I have checked the census returns for 1851 and 61 and although i have found some of the siblings i have yet to find William and Mary Ann Phillips in the area and they are supposed to be there from 51 to 61 because their children are all born there, very frustrating! William died there in 1874.
I will see if the lady you mentioned can check for me.

Barbarai,

I have just noticed that PaulineJackson has posted lookup offers on the 1851 Census of Woolwich. See the begining of the Kent section. Might be well worth posting a request to Pauline.
