The same family can also be found in the 1860 census, with noticeable differences in the possible birth dates implied by their ages, for Samuel, Rachel, Jonathan, and Susanna(h) [Note 53]:

Samuel Phillips died in 1880, and Rachel (Newman) Phillips died in 1901; they are both buried in the Amo Cemetery [2] [5b].

 

There are records listing four Phillips burials in the (Old) Pleasant Hill Methodist Cemetery:

[1] 8b. Samuel Elwood Phillips / d. May 11, 1851 / son of Samuel & Rachel Phillips / 1 yr 9 mo 6 da,

[1] 13. Sally Phillips (born 9-16-1775) / d. Aug. 17, 1851 / wife of John S. Phillips / 75 yr 11 mo 1 da,

 

And, two more Phillips names at the bottom of Mrs. Johnson’s list [2]:

[2] 20. “Susan Phillips, wife of Enoch Harlan” [Susan (Phillips) Harlan, wife of Enoch Harlan], and

[2] 21. “Infant daughter of Jonathan F. Phillips and Makina Couch Phillips, sister to Olney Phillips” 

 

Unfortunately, [2] 20. “Susan Phillips, wife of Enoch Harlan”, appears to be an erroneous entry, as described in the ‘Harlan’ family section, above.
