Notizen bei John Phillips

----The following is copied from Richard Ripley, World Connectdb=verdego, rootsweb.com----
----who researched/developed the ancestry for Michael Phillips andBarbara Pierce---------------

Phillips, a name spelled in a variety of forms, is probably derived fromthe Greek Philos-hippos or horse lover. In Wales it is often spelledPhillipse and in England as Philips. Most historians are sure that thename began in Wales and as people migrated over England the name could bespelled as Phillips, Philips, Phillipse, Philipps, etc. but most are inagreement that it is Welch in origin.

John Phillips is a direct ancestor of both Presidents George Bush, andmany other notable people. He is the progenitor of many Phillips who cameto America via New England after 1630. For the progenitor of mostPhillips who came to America via Pennsylvania, see the file of GriffinusPhillips, Pennsylvania Progenitor. For another major progenitor ofAmerican Phillips families, see the file of John Phillips, Sir, FifthBaronet. For a fourth, see the file of John Phillips, VirginiaProgenitor, descended from this John. All of these families are somewhatinterwoven, deriving from the titled family of Picton Castle, Wales.

Phillips.--Eleanor Lexington, in her 'Colonial Families of America',says, "Emperors and kings, princes and dukes have borne the name ofPhillips or Philips, and the family has a rich heritage in its tradition."

The birth records of John Phillips' children indicate a pattern ofmovement of his family from Cornwall through Devon. (Cornwall/Shropshirecontains many parish churches which were used by families deriving fromthe ancestral Phillips home, Picton Castle, the Phillips estate. PictonCastle is still occupied by the Phillips family, but was taken over bythe National Trust in 1982; no wonder, it is one of the largest castlesand estates in all of the United Kingdom - it may be visited today.)Similar patterns in other members of John's immediate family line weretraced because the father was a pastor. Given the number of clericaloffspring in this family, and the extent of family involvement withserious religious concerns and settlement, it is very likely that Johnwas a clergyman. I will post evidence of this as it becomes available.

While several other lines of Phillips emigrated to America and Canada, itis the descendants of this John Phillips (with both of his wives) whomost profoundly weave through the settlement and history of earlyAmerica, and (mainly after 1783), through the establishment of modernCanada. You will find clergy, teachers, and military officers, includingat least three generals, in the descendants of John Phillips. You willfind stalwart Puritans and religious rebels. Look closely, and you willalso find some scoundels. The strong backbone of the tree is created bythe pioneering yeomen, farmers, and businessmen, with their wives andfamilies. As you travel outward from this backbone, you will find witchesof Salem, and judges of witches, in this family tree; you will findcaptains and passengers who went down with their ships. Success andfailure, comedy and tragedy, abound in the family descent which beginshere. Expect to find a few conflicts with established family legend andolder 'research': message boards in Wales, Ireland, Holland, etc., arelittered with hopeful messages of Phillips descendants trying to verifysuch old lore, when in fact they are descendants of someone in this NewEngland tree.

A great many hopeful, but often incorrect, postings have been placed inLDS ancestral files, which certainly muddy our search. Where I have madereference to LDS files (Ancestral Files or IGI files), I have chosen,wherever possible, the records taken from source registers - and like allfamily researchers, I owe an enormous debt and sense of awe to the Churchof Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints for this monumental task they haveundertaken. In addition, wills were altered and family bibles changed asa result of the Revolutionary War, which fractured several of thePhillips families. Most of the Phillips families of New Jersey and upperNew York State were Loyalists. Some families of New England were splitover the issue. It was an unclear issue at the time which broke up manyPhillips families. Also, DAR applications were filed which deliberatelyingnored or deleted references to family members who chose the Loyalistpath. This family tree makes some effort to sort out these chasms andmysteries, and to reassemble the families of 1776-1783.

Many Phillips branches in America began from the spine of this NewEngland Phillips family. I have in my files now (August 2001), gedcomtrees and other valuable data which provide data on hundreds, if notthousands, of additional Phillips descendants, ranging from the Atlanticto the Pacific, from Louisiana to northern Canada. I am involved indiscussions and conflicts with several groups of living Phillipsdescendants. If you submit data, contradiction, or information of anykind, please allow for possible delays in my response, but re-submit if Ihave taken no action in a month or two, and accept my apologies. In nocase do I dismiss submitted data without response.

The oldest person found in this tree lived to be 104. Twelve individualsfound here passed the age of 100 years. Unfortunately, a much largernumber of children died at birth, and about forty mothers died whiledelivering babies. One or two genetic birth defects of members of thistree are noted, where serious and/or fatal illness have been passed downthrough family lines. Despite this precaution,....

What a gene pool is found here!
