Research Notes

Long-Phillips-Skinner Notes 2022

No known daughter, Elizabeth. A prior version of the profile associated Elizabeth Phillips (abt.1698-) as William's daughter. This association was disputed by WikiTree collaborators in 2021; it was severed in 2022. William's two known children are mentioned in a 1729 deed, see Maine Genealogical Society, York Deeds, 18 vols. (Portland : J.T. Hull, 1887-____), 13:86 (deed; Wm Phillips wife & daughters to Wm Pepperell junr); digital images, Hathi Trust, executed by Ann Phillips (wife of William[^3] Phillips), Sarah Phillips and Deborah Skinner; deed dated 31 July 1729, acknowledged by all three, in Boston, 1 August 1729.

Have posted the following comment to the profile of linked daughter, Elizabeth.
What is the historical evidence by which this Elizabeth Phillips is associated as the daughter of William Phillips of Charlestown?
In his article about the family of William's father, William Phillips (d. 1683), Hal Bradley reported only two children born to William Phillips m. 13 November 1689 to Deborah Long--a son William and a daughter Sarah. No such Elizabeth reported.
See Hal Bradley, "The English Origin of William<sup>1</sup> Phillips of Charlestown and Boston, Massachusetts, and Saco, Maine," The American Genealogist 86 (2012; pub. 2013):296-301, in particular, p. 301; digital images by subscription, AmericanAncestors.

If there are no objections, I'll sever the association of Elizabeth Phillips as the daughter of this William Phillips]], as there has been no historical support given in response to the 2021 profile comment.--Gene

Phillips-18720 and Phillips-1072 appear to represent the same person because: Phillips-18720 was born at Charlestown and married to Deborah Long (see narrative); 13 November 1689. Phillips-1072 was born at Charleston and married Deborah Long 13 November 1689.
