Biography
From husband's 1914 biography in the history of Hendricks County: "In 1861 Mr. Phillips was united in marriage with Lydia Gray, whose death occurred in 1879. She was the mother of two children, namely: Charles H., who died at the age of twenty-nine years, never having been married, and Clarence B., who took as his wife Leoda Wilson. By this wife he has two children, Wilma, who makes her home with her father, and Harold, who has always been under the care of his maternal grandmother, his mother having passed away when he was only four days old. Clarence B. chose as his second wife Cornelia Pearcy, by whom he has one child, Otis, residing with his parents."
