If this is the Thomas Phillips and Lydia Whitfield of Exeter, Providence, RI their Lydia appears to have passed at 2 years old on June 15, 1807. I have often wondered if if her name was Lydia Olney and she married a Phillips before marrying my Isaac Billing Booth in Stafford, Tolland Co., Conn. on April 04, 1833. She would have been 28 at that time. This seems to be somewhat older then most of my female antecedents were when they married but she might have married later in life and I would have thought that she would have dropped her former husband's surname when she remarried.

I recall they may have been on South Angell Street, in Providence. Thank you, Ruth
