Hi Maureen,
Thanks for the additional information on this family. I found Mary (Phillips) Cornell living at the time of the 1880 US Census, with her daughter Maria, wife of Nelson Pearson, and Maria & Nelson's family, in Van Buren, Wayne County, Michigan. Do you happen to know the name of Nelson's father?
Which of Seth and Mary's children do you descend from? A son or daughter? This would be your 2nd great grandparents, I assume.
I've been looking for some of the others whom you described. The Hannah Phillips who married Charles Dawson, was a daughter of Philip Phillips (who m. Rebecca Towsley) by a first wife who is unnamed as of now. The Peggy Phillips who m. Nathaniel Brown, was the same Margaret Phillips, daughter of the OC Loyalist Peter Phillips, named in my last message.
The family grouping, of the Cornells and Phillips of Leeds, Ontario, is certainly growing. I will update the files a bit and send a link to your email address so you can look them over; or you can contact me directly. You will find my email address by clicking on my name above.
Best regards, Richard Ripley
