William married Jemima "Mima" Yates on April 4, 1828 in Wilkes County. Mima was born December 17, 1809 and died December 21, 1880. William and Jemima lived in Ashe County, North Carolina which is now just off the Blue Ridge Parkway. The marker shown on the Parkway named "Phillips Gap" was named for this large family well known and thought of in the area. The location of their home is said to have been on the county line and, therefore, sometimes referred to as in Wilkes County and sometimes as Ashe County on the census records. In William and Jemima's 27 years of marriage, it has been said that 24 children were born to them, however, only 19 can be positively identified.<P> Children of William Phillips and Jemima Yates<BR> Elijah Phillips (abt.1829-1863) m.
