Elizabeth Henrietta Phillips was the daughter of Henry Ernest Phillips 1870 and Hannah Phillips c1869

Dilemma!. Are they genetically related ?.

Henry Ernest's line has been tracked back to a John Phillips c1820, but we cannot move any further on Hannah.

I am researching this family on behalf of a friend who is the granddaughter of Hannah.She has some vague reference to a George Phillips 1841 who just may be Hannah's father. He was born in Dudley WarwicKshire.

Any help in this direction would be gratefully received.

Their marriage cert may have a fathers name on it for her.

Do you have it?



This one?
You dont give an area so I am guessing here.

Looks like Mary 71 is the mother of Ernest rather than Hannah, as his mother was a mary Crowcher

You need the marriage cert without a doubt.

Too many Phillips to be 100% certain you dont go barking up the wrong tree............

Ladt Kira,

Very possible. Henry Ernest's father was a Daniel. However my info is that his mother was a Jane Willis.
Further checking needed here.
