The Phillips family of Tean Mill referred to by Bill are still in the area at Heath House, a super place to arrange a group visit. It was the subject of a TV programme a couple of years ago in the country House rescue series. Well worth a visit - lovely villa and gardens - nice people. The following links will give more information.

Thanks Bill and John, that sounds most interesting, will have to get over there and visit Heath House. Not sure if this Phillips family is the one the OP was searching for? Linda.
