Edward Lee Phillips son of comer was my great great grandfather. My great Grandfather was his son same name.

My brother who was a Mormon told me he had found the grave in the Fairmount Township area of Luzerne, I know that my gg grand father's family settle in Hard pan Huntington Township  around 1803 and he died around 1880. He was a veteran of Gettysburg,. Unfortunately my brother had a mental break down. And could not remember the burial site which seem to be a private family cemetery so I do not really know if he was buried in Fairmount or ibn Forty fort cemetery if so grave grave may have been washed a way during Agnes. I believe he was a Baptist so may be some Baptist church in Wyoming valley may have his death record.

Yes, since 3 years ago, I have found a Forty Fort Meeting House Interment Registry that lists E.L. Phillips buried October 2, 1880.
