Sturgis-172 profile includes a link to a husband, Isaac C. Marquiss Sr. (1765 - 1858), Marquiss-26, who is shown to be the husband to the Eliza Sturgis on this profile. I have adopted the other profile and would like to complete a merged profile. If you can provide any type of confirmation that Eliza is the daughter of John and Leah Phillips, that would be helpful to the research. Thanks.
