Specifically looking for a John Redding Phillips born in Marshall Co 1837or 1840, father is listed as a Will..mother as Lucinda....He marries and has many children, a Lou Elsie, Dallas, Cora and Ida (believe they died early ages) Virgie, Maggie, Fletcher. He married his son's widow abt 1900 and the family added 5 more...Bessie, Virgie, Susie, Clarence and Viola??? Widow was a PHIFER from Marshall County married John's son Dallas and they had 3 children. PHIFERS did NOT approve of either marriage if this is any help.
