About Our Family Research


This web site is work in progress I do not know much about the Phillips side so if anyone can help I do know my grandfather John Phillips died in California he got a divorce in Illinos in 1913 that is when he filed the divorc was final in 1915 or so Alta May left my fathers father and his mother when my dad was little and his mother remarried to George D. Eden so I think of him as grandfather not just step grandfather. And that is all I know about the Phillips side of the family.
I have found the marriage of John Andrew Jackson Phillips to Miss. Sallie Lee in Champagin Illinois on Nov. 26,1885,I found where John Thomas Phillips John A.J. Phillips was married to Elizabeth Young and John T. Phillips was born In Pennsylvania Mifflin County and that John T. father was Isaac Phillips who was married to Priscilla Hill in Maryland, Cecil County. Isaac came to the states on the ship William Murdoch which arrived in Philadelphia from London on Sept. 5,1805, so from there he must of gone to Maryland so if anyone can help me find any more please do so.
Here is what I know about the Garver and Koon side,there where three Edison, Earl, and Anna Garver they live in Logansport Indiana, there father died at an early age because there mother remarried and was a Wright she had one son Russel Wright, George married a catholic girl do not know her name well they had several children, Anna Garver never married she took care of her mother tell she died, Edison Garver (that is my Grandfather) he married a Grace O.
