He was killed in battle at Sacketts Harbor, NY., in 1814. I also learned Catherine remarried to Benjamin Medcalf of Wilmington, VT. after his death. So far, I have not found that they had any children before he died. Therefore, I believe my research of this Joshua Phillips that was married to Catherine Bruce, is not one of my ancestors. The Joshua Phillips in my ancestry, was in Ellisburg, Jefferson County, NY., in 1830. He was the father or brother of Oran (Oren, Orin) and Alonzo Phillips of Bennington, VT. I am still researching the many Phillips's from VT. that migrated to NY. in that time range, for a possible family connection! Good luck in finding more info of your Joshua Phillips..... Julia
