FTDNA should have sent you a Personal FT Page when they notified you of your DNA results. There you will see an icon called Join and there you will find Phillips Worldwide (the most important group i think) and Phillips America. Phillips Worldwide will post you with your closest match usually. Next to the Join icon is the ySearch icon where you can upload you DNA results with ease. The third thing that i believe very helpful both to you and your searches and to other researchers is the uploading of your family tree .ged file. You can do that under the orange tab that says GEDCOM - Family Tree. Instead of going South some Virginia Phillips went East. What was the name of Nicholas oldest son? Were John and Peter the only sons? Does Christian's birth date come nearer Nicholas or to John's or to Peter's ? I think you will find your guy because of his slightly unusual name Nicholas. Please let me know as soon as you are joined with either of the Phillips group.
