Dear Cornish-Gen friends: This was posted in the latest Cornish-Gen Digest : WEST BRITON & CORNWALL ADVERTISER 24 Jan 1851 transcribed by Julia Mosman Deaths At Redruth, ........... and the widow of Mr. WILLIAM PHILLIPS, aged 62 years. [NB: No date mentioned.] I am trying to figure out if this possibly could be my ELIZABETH WITHIEL PHILLIPS. I have her in the census as follows: (What was the date of the Census?) All the people enumerated are her children. 1851 England Census Redruth, Cornwall 122 Angove Terrace Name: Elizabeth Phillips, Widow Estimated Birth Year: abt 1785 Relation: Head Elizabeth Phillips 66 b. Perranzabuloe, Cornwall Mary Ann Phillips 38 b. Illogan, Cornwall Samuel Phillips 32 b. Illogan [NB: This is James W....transcribed wrong] Pattern maker and employs 4 men and boys Nanny Phillips 31 b. Illogan , Cornwall I have her in my file as born possibly between 1790 and 1791. This newspaper record certainly could fit and she have been a little older than I thought , but how could she have died in Jan 1851 and been in the 1851 census? Tis a puzzlement! And, does anyone have any information on her children? Thanks for ideas...Meli in Texas
