I am looking for information on the family of David and Elizabeth Phillips from Montgomeryshire. They went to London in 1780 for the delivery of their son John, at the Holborn Lying In Hospital./ John was born Jan 20, 1780 and baptized Jan. 27th./ The family left the hospital February 4th./ This family also had a son James, born either a little before or a little after John./ We don't know of any other children, though I am sure there were more.
John left Wales and and went to Newfoundland in his teens and James went to the United States. John eventually settled in Cape Breton Island Nova Scotia and we have good records from that point down to the present./
We have no information on James nor the parents except that which I have just stated.// There is a family from Gorsmont, Monmouthshire who would seem to fit with our family very well, ,however, they do not have a John, listed, but rather a James of the appproximately the correct age./ We have wondered whether this same family moved to Montgomeryshire for a time, then returned to Grosmont and had the rest of their children there. I would appreciate any information regarding either one of these two families.
