On 8 December 1520 JOHN PHILIPPS, server of the chamber, succeeded his father Thomas in the offices of steward of Llanstephan and Oysterlowe and coroner and escheator of Pembrokeshire and the lordship of Haverfordwest. His appointment was recorded in the Patent Rolls in December 1520

The Dictionary of Biography names three sons for John Phillips of Picton:
All other children attached to this profile are part of a garbled internet genealogy created by Richard Ripley and actually belong to several different families, mostly in England. I will be looking for their sources and correct families on behalf of the England Project. Greet-49 09:30, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
Two daughters were married into the families of Wyriott of Orielton and Laugharne of St. Bride’s. Needs research.

I also have found a John Philipps (the first baronet Philipps, 1560 to 1629), son of Morgan, also born at Picton Castle, one of whose wives was Ann Perrot. I also have good reason to believe that John and Ann had a daughter Frances in about 1605 who married Sir Hugh Owen in 1629. It is also possible that they had a son Richard, but I have not found the date of his birth, but he died in 1648.
When you start to look at the dates of birth of the children listed in the profile, (which does not seem to agree with the list in the biography), there were 3 children listed as being born in 1530, all born in different locations.
My research so far has only found 5 children, all born at Picton Castle, Pembrokeshire, and none in Yorkshire, Devon, Herefordshire or Shropshire.
This profile will require an intensive rework. I cannot say with certainty that my observations are correct, but I believe I have identified where there are errors.
I only realised there was a problem when I looked into my connection with Samuel Morse and was surprised to find Morgan Philipps, born in Pembrokeshire, had a brother John born in Devon, causing me to look more closely at Morgan Philipps profile, leading to his father’s profile. I was aware of Morgan Philipps, because I knew of his connection to my family.
I hope someone can be found to work on this.

Since there are no sources for this profile, I will approve the merge. The parents and siblings are shown to be the same as 3806. Hopefully, we can catch the birth and death date disparities on the final merge.
Thank you for the work you are doing to make wikiTree more accurate. B
I live in Hampshire, and I am really unhappy about "Ballockesey". "Milton" presumably refers to a district of Portsmouth (Portsea) on the shores of Langstone Harbour. But I am at a loss to figure what that place name Ballockesey refers to.
