Phillips Family from Hanbury Woodend

[George4]

Hi all,

Thanks to the B-G Forums for being available in order to assist people researching their family tree's :)

I am trying to establish if there are any descendants of the Phillip's family originally from Hanbury Woodend Staffordshire or surrounding area's, that might be undertaking similar research. It's a long shot, but worth the try.

My Greatgrandfather George Edward Phillips was born in Hanbury Woodend to Joseph Phillips and Ann Phillips [nee White] in 1861. He later left England arriving at Sydney Australia with his 3 paternal uncle's in 1878 aged 17. He married Sarah Turner in Pyrmont Sydney in 1888, but he later settled and died in Perth Western Australia in 1933 aged 73.

I have been very unsuccessful in tracing his 3 paternal uncle's John, George and Thomas Phillips in Australia and all attempts to trace them is beyond my knowledge.

My main interest is to establish, if there are any descendants of my Phillips family from the Hanbury Woodend, Staffordshire or descendants in Australia.


Kind regards

George Phillips
