I am still trying to locate any information on John Henry Phillips born in Philadelphia circa 1880. Married Eliza Elizabeth when she was about 17, also born in 1880 in Philadelphia. (Elisa's maiden name was Murray, her father's name was Joseph and her mother's name was Fanny Bell (Fanny's parents were William and Letitia Bell)).(William, Letitia and Fanny were all born in Ireland). John and Eliza had a daughter (Name? may have been Julia) approx 1897 and a son, Lawrence Joseph, born Aug 12, 1800 in Phil. PA. They had several other children, I believe 7 altogether. Have reason to believe they all perished in scarlet fever epidemic in 1911 when Lawrence was 11 years old, only survivors were Lawrence and his older sister. Cannot locate his older sister either, she was given to a friend of the family to raise when the family perished. If there is anyone out there who knows of a Phillips girl who was raised by another family when she was about 13 years old, (circa 1911) I surely would love to hear from you. I have been unable to locate anything on Lawrence either, not his births record, not in any census, 1900 census was taken in June, he was born in August., Nothing in 1910 census either. 1920 and 1930 found (Lawrence/Laurence) in Massachusetts.
