    1. [PHILLIPS] James Phillips died in NY bet 1922 - 1930
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: pts1261 Surnames: Phillips, Downes, Downs, Mitzman Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.phillips/8104/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Hello, I'm looking for info on James Phillips, married to Margaret Mitzman. They lived in Manhattan in the 1920 Federal Census, and she was a widow in 1930 and lived in Brooklyn. They had two children between these censuses and he would have passed away some time after 1922 or 23 but before 1930. I am particularly interested in locating any descendants. James was born in Warrington England in 1875 to John Francis Phillips of Drinagh, Roscommon, Ireland, and Suzanne Marie Downes of Warrington. I also have previous messages regarding this info request on these forums under the user name kasha58. Also if anyone has info on how I could isolate his date of death and the borough in which he died I would be appreciative.

    1. Re: [PHILLIPS] [Cost of DNA TESTS - PHILLIPS] Can ANYONE Help?
    2. Oh, I can understand the Europeans' concerns. They lived under Hitler and saw how he tracked Jews and everyone else he didn't like. Imagine what he would have done with DNA! Knowing that, DNA testing still doesn't concern me (yet) because, for the moment, I think it's safe in the hands of the genealogists. I don't think they have a hidden agenda.

    3. Carl I won't be much help to you. Your story interested me because I corresponded with a cousin for years about the Phillips family and she was searching for Bennett Phillips. She died several years ago and I have no idea what happened to her research. She died in Eugene but lived in Grants Pass. I keep running into him as I research in Missouri which is where my Phillips resided before coming to Oregon. bhodgkin@oregonvos.net On Mar 04, 2008, at 6:43 AM, CALVIN PHILLIPS wrote: > Hunting for my GGrandfather, Bennett S.

    1. [PHILLIPS] About mutations:
    2. Hi Nancy, I did speak to Family tree dna about my question. 1. If I have a patrilineal ancestor who lived in 800 AD and i compared a 77 allele panel of his Y dna to mine. should I expect them to be the same? A. No 2. Is more than one allele mutation normal? A Yes 3. If that ancestor had a second son who also had patilineal descendents, then their Y dana alleles might also mutate? A Yes 4. Could they be expected to be different alleles mutating or mutating in a different direction? A. Yes 5. So that between that "couisn" of mine and I, there could be twice a many mutations as between my ancestor and I? A Yes 6. So how can you publish a 37 allele panel from a men from 800 AD in Ireland and say that Irish men with this same Y dna TODAY all descended from these men? A. 1. They have scientist who specialize in this who are able to "reconstruct" by analysis what that Y dna might have looked like in 800ad . 2. They look at the genetic distance which will vary depending on what allele changed and by how much and can make a pretty fair estimate of whether a 2008 Ydna panel owner descended from the 800 ASD panel owner. Makes sense.I think he's saying to look at your genetic distance between your Ydna and that panel that was published. If its different but its 20 generations or so similiar, it could be related.

    2. CALVIN PHILLIPS
    3. Thanks for the note Nancy. I've never been able to trace my GGFather back to KY, all I know is the statement to the census enumerators that he was born there. Bennett and Elizabeth had five children in Linneus: James, Anne Vallie, Lidy, Thornton and my Grandfather William. I never knew any of them or their descendants because my Mother heartily disliked the Phillips family and kept us totally away from them. In fact, she gave me the name "Calvin" because she wanted me to have a non-Phillips name. She found out, unfortunately she told me when I was two or three years old that Dad's older brother, John, had the name John Calvin! I know some of the family married Stanleys, Kayes, James Brown, all around Sumner, but never got to know much about them. Would appreciate any info or help. Thanks again, Cal
