  • Notes 
    • Description: Hello, further information for you.
      I am a descendant of Sarah Serpell and Alfred Phillips who came to South Australia in 1847.

      Sarah Serpell died of Epilepsy on 17/11/1865 and her head stone is now at the Williamstown Cemetery South Australia.

      Sarah and Alfred married in 1851 Liskard Cornwall.
      Alfred was born on 30/6/1808 in Cornwall to John Phillips and Mary (Reynolds)
      Alfred died on 5/11/1888 @ his son in laws home in Norwood South Australia

      Alfred was brought out to South Australia by the South Australian Mining Company as a Mine Captain on the Rajah which was hired by the Company to bring miners and goods to SA specifically for their enterprises.

      during Alfred's life he worked at various mines in South Australia and his son Frederick was the original Mine Agent for the gold mine in Pine Creek Northern Territory.

      Alfred and Sarah had a total of 11 children some born in Cornwall and the remainder in South Australia.

      Alfred remarried a Jane Berryman after the death of Sarah in 1867 at that time Alfred's occupation was Wine and Spirit Merchant. He also was a teacher which is what he was doing at She-Oak Log South Australia where Sarah died.
