I have been researching my Phillips ancestry. I have run into a dead end with Lewis, Lewis W. or L W Phillips in Butts County Georgia. I discovered a Phillips DNA project newsletter that read how innacurrate information is posted on the internet. I have found this to be very true through countless hours of searching. Also, the areas south of Atlanta were hit hard in the War b/w the states, making it harder to gather accurate data. I am posting my lineage in hope that I can make a connection. My source of information is Butts County Georgia census records, 1840-1870, family records, and Georgia Archives.


Lewis W Phillips' household listed on 1850 & 1860 Butts county census with added information below:


Mary Caroline/carrie-- 1835/6-1914 married Elias Grant [C= Caroline or Carrie]
George W. 1837-1915 -- married Sidney Elizabeth Tingle Dec 13, 1859
Charles J. - -
John N. -- 1840-1913 married Emily Johns Oct 12, 1865
Trustin Augustin? -- 1842-1862 died in Civil War Chimborazo Hospital #4

I descend from John Newton and Emily Phillips.
