Summary: query about Laura Phillips (Mich. ca.1830-?) 

Like Mr. Tucker of 14 Feb, I thought I'd try this method of  tree
climbing since I have no access to other sources right now; i.e.,
a query on a specific individual.
  If anyone has any information on the following, or  would  like
to exchange information on related lines, I'd really like to hear
from you.
    Does anyone know anything about the background of

    Laura Elizabeth(?) Phillips, born ca. 1830 in N.Y. or Mich;
    married Franklin Swift (his third, her first(?)) 5  Jan  1854
    Mich.
    More specifically, they probably married in Wayne Co., Mich.
    F.S. and L.E.P. had only one child, as far as I know; my
    great-great-grandmother Lodorsca Adelaide Swift b.  1859  Ann
    Arbor.

I can help  with  surnames  like  Willard,  Swift  (in  Sandwich,
Mass.), Wrampelmeier (Lodorsca married Theodore John Wrampelmeier
1879,Ann Arbor, Mich.),  Booth (N.Y.,  Colorado),  Farrar (Machias,
N.Y.) and some others.                          Thanks
