My howard ancestors

My great-great-great-grandmother was rosetta howard born in eydon,northamptonshire around 1820.
She married John moore, a brickmaker in 1839 in fulham all saints,london.

Her father was samuel howard born about 1770 in daventry to john and mary?
Samuel howard married an Ann between 1800-1810?.
Had several children in eydon.
Was living in fulham at time of his daughter's rosetta's marriage where he was working as a brickmaker.
Later on he become a railway contractor(source;1861 census?)

Interestingly samuel howard had brothers called matthew and phillip,only those first names appear the noble family of howards(duke of norfolks etc)

Paul, this may be a bit of a long shot, but I am researching the descendants of Joseph Phillips, born 1784 in England, died 1848 in Dominica, W.I. He married Mary Keziah Moore, dates not known, described as "a woman of colour", in Antigua, and they had several children: William Chevalier Phillips [born about 1814 in Antigua, died 1884 in England], Joseph [dates not known], Martha Chevalier Phillips and [possibly] Eliza Mary. William's descendants are alive now in England.

If you think there may be a fit, please contact me at aphillipsregina@gmail.com
