I have been searching for my ancestors. I have traced back to John Philbrick born in 1687 in Great Coggeshall, Essex ,England. He married Martha Hooper(of the same place)in 1706. They had 2 children Elizabeth (1711) and John (1712).John (1687)died in 1712.John 1712 married Amy Spurgin of Great Coggeshall and had 9 children, Egerton (1740) being the next in my line. He was born either Great Coggeshall or Parish of Sudbury Suffolk .He married Lucy Loker Oct 26 /1765 and died (1782), buried in Hatfield Perval Essex ,England.7 children. Of their children Spurgin is the next in line. He was born Oct 8/1775 Hatfield Perval and married 1)Sarah Gossett(1776) 2) Martha Cole (1799). He died in 1843 in Woodham Walter. 13 children ,John is the next born in Woodham Walter, Essex ,England in Jan 28 /1803.He married Ann Glassock Sept 20/1823.13 children .Their son James Philbrook (notice name Change) born Dec 21/1823 is the next in line. He married Ann Thornton. 12 children of which James George is my G.Grandfather.He was born Sept 23/1851 and married Elizabeth Gould in 1873. She was born 1852 They had 11 children .In 1912 they immigrated to Canada (Toronto Ont.). They were going to come on the Titanic, but could not get enough cabins side by side on the same deck so changed booking to the Megantic.He died in June 17/1918 and she died in Feb.5/1936.They are buried in Prospect Cemetary in Toronto Ont. Next is Sydney my Grandfather .He was born at 49 Bradfoed Rd. Sydenham,Kent,England in 1891 and married Winifred Mary Louise Eales on June 24/1918.They lived in Toronto and he died Jan 7/ 1987 and she died Nov.23/1963.They are both buried in Prospect Cemetary ,Toronto Ont. Mildred my mother was born April 29/1927 In Toronto .I was born Oct. 24 /1945 in Toronto and married Dennis MacDonald In June 26 /1965 .I have 4 children and eight Grand children. I have found some info on the net for an Egerton Danzie Coleman Philbrick and a bit on Spurgin. Not to much on cencus.The Philbrick/Philbrook org. has been a big help . We are possibly related to Thomas Fylbrigg 1545 Bures England and back further to Maud de Felbrigg ( Married a Bigod)and her Father Richard and G.Grandfather Roger. There is plenty of info on the Bigod's .I have connected Thomas back to Maud's GGG.? Grandson Simon de Felbrigg Knight of the Garter ) who died in 1442 and his second wife Katherine.There are many names not included here But I have alot of info on the Family Tree Maker Program .I am hopeing that eventually I will be able to find a connction .Hope to here from somebody .
