Captain John Willway Phillips, Master Mariner of Bristol


Here is a link to a very interesting story about Capt. John Willway Phillips, Master Mariner of Bristol, and his family.  Capt. Phillips lived from 1783 to 1846 and kept a "sick-room" diary from April to July of 1842.  This PDF contains some excellent family history of the Willway and Phillips families and great insight into everyday life in St. George on the outskirts of Bristol, England, in 1842.
