    3. Phillip Showers b. 1843/1845 in PA or WV depending on which record you see, married in Fauquier Co. Lived in Warren/Fauq Co. in Linden. He's the subject of the legendary Phillip who lived to be 116 years old and was supposed to have been born in 1820 according to obit and article written about him at age 114. However, marriage certificate and census records differ greatly with those articles on his age. Phillip married Eliza Jane ELKINS in 1865. Eliza had one son, George, born in 1858, that apparently is not the son of Phillip. Looking for father of George ELKINS SHOWERS. Eliza is daughter of James ELKINS and unknown mother. Searching for TRUTH on Phillip SHOWERS birth date, his parents, his place of birth. Phillip had one son that is known, James Henry SHOWERS. Phillip married Fannie KENNEY after Eliza died. I have a lot of info on this line that I am willing to share. Some terrific cousins in VA are now doing research and sharing everything they find. http://home.tampabay.rr.com/shenandoah/ "Shenandoah Ancestry" has a page on Showers with a picture of Phillip and some of his family. There is also a page on Kenney with pictures. Alley Blackford alley@tampabay.rr.com
