Tracey Report 13 May 2010 09:19

Morning!

I am wondering if anyone can help me to find the children of
JOHN PHILLIPS abt 1857 Bromley and Louisa Ellis [Louisa was born in Constansinople, Turkey and listed as a british Subject]... I know nothing on John Phillips other than i have guessed on his birth via their marriage cert 14 Jan 1879 - Poplar... I believe they had around 8-9 Children including my Great grandmother Ada Phillips [ Another lady that i know very little about ]...

Just someone might find something i haven't... A BIG THANK YOU to those who help me
Tracey

The original image (1911 census) states that they have been married for 31 years and have had 11 children, 8 still living.
It also reads that Louisa was born in Constantinople, yet gives her Nationality status as 'ditto' that of her husband above, ie English.

Karen this is fantastic..

I cant find a death for ada Phillips... She married Thomas Malcolm Jarvis 31 Jul 1904 Romford and they only had two children listed Thomas Henry Jarvis 1906 { my Grandad} and brother Ernest John Jarvis 1914...


Sorry for asking so much.. My grandad never spoke about his father or brother

Looking at LMA records, London Baptisms for your Ada Phillips but cannot see a record, though there is this....

Name: Alice May Phillips
Record Type: Baptism
Date: 6 May 1886
Father's Name: John Phillips
Mother's Name: Louisa Phillips
Parish: St Mary, Bromley St Leonard
Borough: Tower Hamlets
County: Middlesex

Original image gives her birth date as 15 April 1886. Father's occupation is difficult to read, could be Wool Broker. No address given, it just states Bromley.
