Hi, Claudine, This is Nancy Kiser, the Assistant Administrator of the Phillips Worldwide DNA Project. As you may know, many reseachers believe Jame Phillips who married Sarah McIntyre was the son of Levi and Barbara (Hough) Phillips of Oconee Co SC. A few further believe that Levi was a descendant of Reuben Phillips of Cecil Co MD. The descendants of Reuben Phillips of Cecil Co MD comprise Phillips Family Group 2 at Phillips Worldwide. Here is a link to our website where you can review the pedigrees of Phillips Family Group 2: http://www.worldfamilies.net/surnames/p/phillips/ If you have a male Phillips relative who is willing to join the project and get his DNA tested, you will be able to discover whether or not your Phillips line really belongs to Phillips Family Group 2. The DNA test is painless and private. Hope you have a male Phillips relative who is willing to contribute his DNA to this important project!

Philips (sometimes spelled with one L, sometimes two) ?b. 1 Mar 1814, Franklin Co., GA - d. ? who was married to Malissa W. Key.? They had nine (9) children -- among them was Louisa E. (2 Feb 1847 DeKalb Co., GA - 17 Jun 1930 Walton Co., GA.) who married Allen Bond WHITEHEAD. Parents of Paschal were: James PHILIPS (15 Jul 1786 GA - 12 Aug 1872 DeKalb Co., GA) and Sarah Burdette McIntyre (17 May 1795 GA - 17 Jan 1877 DeKalb Co., GA).? Who was the father of James? There were other PHILLIPS families in Walton Co. and I'm trying to establish if there is a family connection. For instance: There was a Mark PHILLIPS (10 Feb 1788 NC - 1857 Walton Co., GA) who was married to Sarah Elizabeth PHILLIPS (1819 GA - 1897 Walton Co., GA). Parents of Mark PHILLIPS were John PHILLIPS (b. abt 1752 NC - d. 1821 Oglethorpe Co., GA) and Sarah SEXTON (b. abt 1762 - d. bef. 1850 Oglethorpe Co., GA).? John and Sarah DID NOT have a son named James.
