He is supposedly the great great grandson of Roger Phillips who died 1699 in Somerset County, MD. Valeria Phillips Gildehaus has posted a tree for this family at rootsweb. Here is a link: http://wc.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=REG&db=valeriejean&id=I1044 Three male Phillips descendants of this family have joined the Phillips Worldwide DNA project and gotten their DNA tested. They are shown as family group 7 on the DNA chart at this link: http://www.familytreedna.com/(ziu11ymztup4ogunthivwg55)/public/PhillipsWorldwide/index.aspx?fixed_columns=on Hope this info helps.
