Misty-According to the death certif. his wife's name was Lula.I found them in Mo in 1900 & 1910 as follows:
1900
Household Gender Age
Henry Philips M 39
Spouse Lulu Philips
F 31
Child Bryan Philips
M 8
Child William Philips
M 6
Child Isola Philips
F 3
1910
Household Gender Age
Henry J Phillips M 49y
Spouse Lula Phillips
F 41y
Child Brian Phillips
M 18y
Child William Phillips
M 15y
Child Isola Phillips
F 12y
In the 1900 census it said they had been married for 5 years.If that is correct, it would mean that Lula/Lulu was a second wife and only Isola was her child.
I looked in the 1870 census to see if I could find a Charles Henry Phillips who was born in IA in 1861 and the only one I could come up with was a Charles Phillips living in TAMA Co., IA (west of Cedar Rapids) living with an Arbuthnot family with no one in the family who would appear to be his mother.I suspect that he is related but cannot tell how.
In the 1880 census I could only find a person who seems to fit him in Linn Co. IA (just north of Cedar Rapids)living with the following family:
Gilbert MerrittM 41
Eliza MerrittF 33
Thomas MerrittM 14
Sarah L. MerrittF 11
Violetta M. MerrittF 8
Frank MerrittM 3
Charles PhilipsM 19
Note that the various census shows different places of birth for his father.One says Virginia and one says Kansas and the 188o one says PA.
Don't know if this helps or just adds to the confusion.It may well be that his parents both died while he was young andhe really doesn't know where they came from. I tried to find a William Phillips who might be a candidate as his father,but the only one who seemed to halfway fit would have been 51 and his wife 49 when Charles was born. That family lived in Jeffereson Co. IA and William was from PA.
