Hi, Is anyone researching this family? Another researcher sent me this information. I am trying to see if this family is connected to the Robert Phillips that was born in 1848 in Alabama, (His children and wife Sally settled in Redland.) The family below knew the Robert Phillips family that lived outside of Idabel, Oklahoma at Redland. "They came from South Carolina and Calhoun County, Alabama. Isaac Newton Phillips - head of household Mary Elizabeth Phillips - wife Hosea Ross Phillips - son Newton Reed Phillips -son Eliza Jane Phillips - daughter Hosea Ross Phillips married Narcissus Woodward Newton Phillips, my grandfather, married Lena (Mapp) Phillips. Lena's family was the Mapps. The Mapps lived in DeKalb, Texas at the time. Newton and Lena lost a boy and a girl to what I think was SIDS but we will never know. Earl C. Phillips, my father, was born in 1892. Burl H. Phillips, my uncle, was born in 1894 Esta Phillips, my aunt, was born in 1901 Newton and Lena were divorced in 1904. Newton remained at the home in New Boston, Texas and Lena went to the Idabel area. One of my older brothers told me about Lena living next to the family of Tobias Phillips at that time. Uncle Burl apparently visited Lena at her place in Idabel from 1904 to 1912.We knew very little about any of the family because of the split-up but we're digging. Lena passed away from Typhoid in 1912 and Newton died from unknown causes the same year. Isaac Newton passed away in 1914 and his wife passed away soon afterward. Eliza Jane Phillips married G.W. Blocker. They settled in Oak Grove, Texas." Thank you tawsha hubbard

Eliza Jane Phillips & George W Blocker are the grandparents of Dan Blocker the actor. I'm not related to this Phillips family, but I have a chart that takes this Phillips family back to Union County SC. Gene Phillips
