Jackie Gordon JV_GORDON@@email.msn.com Per my Grandmother: Nonie Mae Harris Phillips I believe Ms. Elizabeth ?Francis? Callahan (b 1818 SC, d aft 1850) married Zachariah Phillips (b. 26 Jul 1810 Little River, Baldwin Co. AL. d. 1886) m. 25 Feb 1842 Little River, AL. They would have been my GGG Grandparents. The story is that the Callahans were at least 2 generations of Pioneer Baptist Preachers. (That might go a long way toward explaining that end of things!) Elizabeth's father is supposed to have been the son of a Baptist preacher (who had something like 20-21 children) with 5 or 6 brothers who were also preachers. I have tried to find them on Baptist web sites, etc. but can't quite put it all together. (Can't find a TRUE link). The Baldwin Co. 1850 Census shows Elizabeth Callahan born in SC. (Elizabeth's mother may also have been Elizabeth). I also show Elizabeth, Lucy J. and Sarah living w/ Phillips children: Ann Elizabeth, John M.K., Liza E., Robert J., and Sarah J. All children are very young. (I'm not sure which census this is on). The adults in the house are 4 Phillips and 1 Stiggins. I didn't take the time to completely read your site so I apologize if this is "wild" information. I am also new to this geneology business and soaring in many directions, often at the same time. But, this may give you another direction to search, especially for the "missing" girls. If you think you have any connections which could help either of us, would you please E-mail me and try to explain it to me. Thanks in advance for your time. Jackie Gordon
