    Map shows land owned by John Phillips (left side, yellow area, J. Phillips), the same farm originally owned by his father, Titus Phillips, where John and his siblings grew up.

    The map also shows land owned by John's brothers-in-law, David Blaker Jr and Eaton Blaker (slightly left and above, D Blaker and E Blaker, respectively). They inherited this land from their father David O Blaker.

    Mary Phillips, head of household, which included 1 male 10-14 (?), 1 male 15-19 (?), 1 male 20-29 (John), 1 female 50-59 (self). Tentatively assigned to this Mary and not to Mary who married Ebenezer Phillips.

    Simeon Phillips listed as head of household, which included 1 male under 5 (John), 1 male ages 5-9 (Benjamin), 1 male ages 20-29 (Simeon), 2 females under 5 (?), 1 female ages 10-14 (Martha), 1 female ages 20-29 (Elizabeth). Age brackets don't exactly mesh with what I know about his family so either this is enumerator error or he had additional children who don't show up in later records for his household.
