Phillips b. 17 Oct. 1833 in Ohio ? d. 24 March 1907 in Grand Haven, Ottawa County, MI. m. Mary Jane ? Found in 1880 MI census in Grand Haven and in Lake Forest Cemetery Records in Grand Haven. Father was John Phillips b. ab1804 in NY d. 3 June 1878 in Grand Haven, MI also buried in Lake Forest Cemetery, GH MI. I believe his father's name was Phillip Phillips but have nat been able to make a connection. Mother's name was Elizabeth? Walter's mother (wife of John)was listed in the 1880 census as living with Walter. Name on census was Esineth (our spelling is Asenath) Maiden name was Root. If any one can give me any more info on this family I would really appreciate it. My Great-grandmother was Sarah Marie Phillips Davis sister of Walter and daughter of John. Thank You!
