After looking at a number of family genealogy books, census records, land records, and church records, I have revised my view on the ancestry of Peter Phipps of Wayne Co., KY as follows: 1. Peter Phipps, b 1790 mar. Nancy Davenport, dau of either, John Davenport and Nancy Burnett, or dau of Osborne Davenport and Mary (nee) Davenport. 2. Joshua Phipps, b 1765-70, d. Missouri or TN, mar.:1) Elizabeth ?Rice?; mar 2) Rosan ????, widow of ???? Green. 3. Elizabeth ?Rice? 4. Joshua Phipps, b. 1745*, d. Green Co., KY 5. Hester Acton/Aston, d. Green Co., KY 6. ?Abraham Rice? 7. ?Mrs. ????? Hastings? 8. Joseph Phipps, mar.: 1) Elizabeth ????; mar.2) Mary Helsby, 1742, Chester Co., PA 9. Mary Helsby 10. probably, George Aston 11. Esther Thomas 12-15 unknown 16. Joseph Phipps 17. Mary Woodier 18. Joseph Helsby 19. Jane ????? 20. George Aston 21. Elizabeth Hunter 22. Owen Thomas 23. Ann ????? 24.-31 unknown 32 Joseph Phipps 33 Mary Benfield 34 George Woodier 35 Elizabeth ????? 36-39 unknown 40 possibly, George Aston (in PA by 1683?) 41 unknown 42 Peter Hunter 43-63 unknown 64. John Phipps 65. Mary ???? 66-123 unknown Sources: Year of birth of Joshua II; Pension application dated 1820, "aged 75". Marriage of Joseph Phipps and Mary Helsby: Records of Goshen Monthly Meeting, 1742. Parents of Mary Helsby: Records of Goshen Monthly Meeting, 1713. George Aston III as father of Hester Aston Phipps is based on chronology and his wife being named Esther. Esther Aston Phipps is named as wife of Joshua Phipps, and daughter of "uncle" George Aston, in the 1813 will of George Aston of Philadelphia. Existence of George Aston I inferred, since there was a George or John Aston in PA in 1683, see, Futher, Hist and Gen of Chester Co., PA. This needs verification. Wife of George Aston III, Esther Thomas, is identified in a mortgage of 27 Mar 1741 in Chester Co., PA. Her parents, Owen THomas and Ann, are named within. Deed Book F6:210. Wife of George Aston II, Elizabeth Hunter, is identified in an acknowledgement dated 12 July 1734 in Chester Co., PA. Her father, Peter Hunter, is named within. Deed Book E5:257. Peter Hunter may be the Peter Hunter who was received at Chester Monthly Meting 6m 26d 1717, from Ballycane Meeting, Co., Wicklow, Ireland, by certificate dated 11m 13d 1716. Any additions or corrections would be appreciated. Regards, Steven C. Perkins
