I have been watching the Phillips list for several weeks, hoping to see something about my Phillips family in Maine and/or Quebec. But I have not yet done what I should have -- posted my ancestors for the list. So here goes. My great-grandparents on my mother's side, John Phillips and Elizabeth Sargent -- immigrants from Canada -- first appear in America in the Census of 1850. He was a farmer and they were living in Solon, Somerset County, ME. I discovered from Quebec church records this past summer that they were married in Frampton, Quebec, on August 6, 1844. And their first child, Robert, was born in Frampton on Feb. 16, 1848. The next child, Barbara (later Barbara Phillips Foster), was only two months old in the June,1850, Census -- born probably in Somerset County. There were four more children, all born in Somerset County: Milton (my grandfather), born in 1856; Wellington, about 1857; Elizabeth, 1858 or 1860 (died unmarried); and Sargent, 1862. I do not know John's parents' names or where he was born. His birth year was apparently between 1821 and 1823. He died on December 24, 1890, and is buried in North Anson, ME. His children gave his birthplace in various records as Quebec, Scotland, Wales and Ireland. Elizabeth was born in Quebec on April 1, 1822, according to her death certificate, or on December 1, 1821, according to her tombstone in North Anson. She died in Anson on July 22, 1896, and was the daughter of John Sargent and Barbara Leslie. They are both shown as natives of Scotland. I would like to know about John's and Elizabeth's ancestry. I have added information about some of their descendants but would like to hear from any relatives on the list. Many thanks, Robert Phillips (Bob) Clark, San Antonio, TX
