      The daughter of Jochebed Levy and Moses Seixas, Rachel Hannah Seixas would remain in Newport, Rhose Island, where her father was a leading Jewish figure, until her 1797 marriage to Naphtali Phillips.
      After her marriage to Phillips, the couple moved first to his hometown of Philadelphia and then to New York where he ran a newspaper. They had eleven children together. In 1822 she passed away and Phillips remarried her cousin, Esther B. Seixas.
