Surnames: Phillips Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/nNABAIB/5516 Message Board Post: I've just learned that my GG granfa Frederick Phillips was born in Nova Scotia in 1826. He died in Talladega County, AL in 1909. First record I have of him in AL is 1862 when he enlisted in the Confederate Forces. Served with 30th AL and then was transferred to Taliaferro's Brigade, 10th Reg VA Vol. Was paroled at Appomatox. Married Mrs. Martha Barrett (maiden name UNK), widow of James Barrett, in 1866. They had two children Wm David and Anna Lou. Later married Edna Lenora (maiden name UNK). They had additional children. She died in 1941. Any help with these families would be greatly appreciated. Will share all info I have. Thanks, Kay
