I have a ggggrandfather, John A Phillips who was born in 1818 or 1819 in Georgia. The only official records that I have of him are in 1840- 1869 in Dyer County, Tn. In 1870 he moved his family to Miller County, Mo. I think that his maternal grandparents had the surname Thurmond(an) based on a land record in Dyer County. I know this is a longshot but if you have any records of Thurmonds and Phillips marrying or doing business together I would appreciate hearing about it. Also I think that there may be some connection to an area named Caledonia based on the middle name of a one of his twins who died as a child. The other childs middle name was Fedonia which was then area of KY tht John's wife was from. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mark Grace" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, September 29, 2006 10:15 AM Subject: [PHILLIPS] Franklin County GA > Looking for anyone who may be researching the Phillips > family of Franklin County Georgia in the 1800's and possibly Fannin > County Georgia up to 1900. > Thanks > Mark > > > --------------------------------- > Get your email and more, right on the new Yahoo.com > > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to > [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the > quotes in the subject and the body of the message >
