Looking for John Phillips and Rhoda Morris
I need help in finding my family who were in Albemarle County in the area that is now Nelson County, Virginia.
At some time in the last few years, I obviously found the names of the children of John Phillips (b. abt. 1780) and Rhody (Rhoday) Morris.I believe John Phillips was the eldest son of my 3x great grandfather, Matthew Phillips, who was born in Albemarle County in 1750.Matthew Phillips and his wife Ann Goolsby lived about four miles east of Lovingston.
Because of a recent DNA match between my brother and a descendant of Matthew Phillips (probably son of John Phillips and born in Albemarle and died in Warren County, Kentucky), we know we are connected.These are the children that I have from an unknown source:
