Hi Aynsley,
The Benjamin Phillips in question was born about 1805, are we still discussing the same one? Benjamin's son William also had a son named Benjamin Thomas Phillips - born 1864, and a George Henry Phillips - born 1862. Could this be the George you mean?

Yes, it seems to be the same one, but during my trip to Shrewsbury Archives did not find birth of George as Benjamins brother. When was he born? Anyway as you mention their parent are Thomas Phillips and Frances(Fanny) Allen - marriage 2(?) Feb, 1802. Fannys parents are Samuel Allen and Elizabeth(Beetenson) - we believe.
Have you any more info on the Phillips family?
My connection goes down the line, as I mentioned, William - son of Benjamin, and again his son William( married to Sarah Ann Hughes 1901), living in Newport.
