Glamorganshire / Re: Descendents of Walter Phillips

Hi,
I came across this old thread and wondered how far back you had got. I see from the replies that 1841 was the where the block came.
The Phillips family are an old established farming family in west Carmarthenshire. Walter's niece (brother George's daughter) was High Sheriff of Carmarthen in 1961-62. You can follow this link for her obituary http://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/obituaries-mollie-phillips-1568530.html
Walter and George's father was John Phillips who married Mary Jane Taylor and John's father was Walter(Watt) Phillips who married Mary Thomas in 1831.Watt is shown on the 1851 census living in The White Lion Inn in Llanwinio parish.
I have information on preceding generations from a locally researched tree. Let me know if I can be of assistance
