PHILIPPS, William (c.1530-73), of Picton, Pemb. b. c.1530, 1st s. of John Philipps of Picton by Elizabeth, da. of Sir W. Griffith of Penrhyn, Caern. m. Jane, da. of Sir Thomas Perrot of Haroldston, 2da.; 1s. 1da. illegit.2 ... etc. The family of Philipps stood in direct descent from the twelfth-century lords of Cilsant in western Carmarthenshire, which remained the centre of their territorial interest until William Philipps’s grandfather Sir Thomas acquired the lordship and castle of Picton in Pembrokeshire by marriage, and with it manors and lands scattered northwards from Milford Haven and eastwards into Carmarthenshire. Henceforth the family influence lay chiefly in Pembrokeshire, where William was assessed at the musters of 1570 at ‘one light horseman furnished’. He was allied by marriage with most of the principal county families: his sisters were married into those of Wyriott of Orielton and Laugharne of St. Bride’s, his daughters into those of Owen of Henllys and Stepneth of Prendergast. All these were sworn enemies of Sir John Perrot, and the fact that Philipps was married to Perrot’s half-sister did not prevent him from taking their side.4 .... etc. Philipps’s outlying estates were divided between his two daughters, but Picton itself, after his mother’s death, passed to his brother Morgan, whose descendants continued the line.6 From: http://www.historyofparliamentonline.org/volume/1558-1603/member/philipps-william-1530-73 ______________

PHILIPPS, Richard (by 1534-61), of Picton, Pembs. b. by 1534, 2nd or 3rd s. of John Philipps of Picton by 2nd w. Elizabeth, da. of Sir William Gruffydd of Penrhyn, Caern.; bro. of William†. unm.2 Richard Philipps’s family claimed princely descent and was connected with the leading families in Pembrokeshire where it had settled on moving from Carmarthen in the late 15th century. Under his father’s will of 1549 Philipps inherited a share in property in the lordship of Llanstephan and at St. Clears. His return to the Parliament of 1555 reflected his connexions and preceded that of his brother William for the shire four years later. He was joined in the House by his equally youthful ‘cousins’, Sir Henry Jones, Richard Jones and Sir John Perrot, and by his uncle Sir Rhys Gruffyd. In view of the opposition of two of his cousins to a government bill it is tempting to identify Philipps with the ‘Mr. Fillips’ on the list of opponents to the measure, but the Member concerned is thought to have been John Phelips. Little else has come to light about Philipps. With the encouragement of the bard Gruffydd Hiraethog, and perhaps also of his own kinsman Gruffydd Done, he began a collection of Welsh proverbs, prose and poetry which was unfinished at his death in late September 1561.3 From: http://www.historyofparliamentonline.org/volume/1509-1558/member/philipps-richard-1534-61 ____________________

Pembrokeshire Record Office Records relating to the Philipps family of Picton Castle Administrative and biographical history: Picton Castle, Slebech, Pembrokeshire, was built in early 12th century by William de Picton and his descendants still occupy the Castle today, carrying the name of Philipps since the 15th Century. By marriage with an heiress of the Pictons, the Castle became the property of the Wogan family. The Wogans of Picton ended in heiresses and to Katherine, who married Owen Dunn of Muddlescombe, Pembrokeshire, fell the inheritance of Picton Castle. Their granddaughter, Joan, married Thomas Philipps of Cilsant, Llanwinio, Carmarthenshire (d. 1520), in 1491 and became first lord Philipps of Picton Castle. Their son, John married Elizabeth Griffith of Penrhyn Castle, Pembrokeshire. The eldest son, Richard (1535-1551) died and was succeeded by their younger son, William (d. 1573). When he died, his brother, Morgan (d. 1585) succeeded to his estates. His eldest son, Sir John Philipps (d. 1629) was created a Baronet in 1621. The baronetcy then was passed from father to son: Sir Richard Philipps (d. 1648), the 2nd Baron; Sir Erasmus Phillips (d. 1697), the 3rd Baron; Sir John Philipps (d. 1736), the 4th Baron, had three sons. The eldest, Sir Erasmus (1700-1743), 5th Baron, died and was succeeded by his younger brother, Sir John (1701- 1764), the 6th Baron, and the third son was Bulkeley of Abercover, Llandyfaelog, Carmarthenshire. Sir John's only son, Sir Richard Philipps (d. 1823) the 7th Baron, was created Lord Milford in 1776. He died childless, and the estate devolved on his cousin, Richard Bulkeley Phillips Grant (1801-1857) of Abercyfor, Llandyfaelog, Carmarthenshire, who assumed the surname Philipps. He died without issue, and his estates devolved upon his half-brother, the Rev. James Henry Alexander Philipps (formerly Gwyther) (1814-1875). His son-in-law, Sir Charles Edward Gregg Philipps (formerly Fisher), who was married to his daughter, Mary Philippa, succeeded him. This baronetcy descended to their son Sir Henry Erasmus Edward Philipps (1871-1938) and then to his son Sir John Erasmus Gwynne Alexander Philipps (1915-1948). The Picton castle estate included the lordships of several manors and the presentation of St Mary's Church, Haverfordwest, Pembrokeshire.

PHILLIPS family of Picton, Pembrokeshire. Sometime before 17 Oct. 1491 Sir Thomas Philipps of Kilsant, Carms., married Joan Dwynn, daughter and heiress of Harry Dwynn (son of Owen Dwynn of Muddlescomb in Kidwelly and Katherine Wogan, second daughter of John Wogan and widow of Sir Henry Wogan and widow of Sir Henry Wogan) and Margaret, daughter and co-heiress of Sir Henry Wogan of Wison. The Kilsant (Cilsant) family claimed descent from Cadifor Fawr of Blaen Cych and Sir Aaron ap Rhys, Crusader. Sir Thomas Philipps was the son of Philip Philipps, son of Meredith Philipps of Cilsant. He was esquire to the body of Henry VII and was appointed one of the stewards and receiver of the lordships of Llanstephan and Oysterlowe on 16 May 1509. On 7 Sept. 1509 he was appointed coroner and escheator of Pembrokeshire and the lordship of Haverfordwest. In the French war of 1513 he was captain of a retinue of a hundred men and in that year he was knighted. On 16 Oct. 1515 he became sheriff of Pembrokeshire and bailiff in eyre in the lordship of Haverfordwest. He was a patron of the bard Lewis Glyn Cothik. He d. before 8 Dec. 1520 when his son, John Philipps, server of the chamber, succeeded him in the offices of Steward of Llanstephan and Oysterlowe and coroner and escheater of Pembrokeshire and the lordship of of Haverfordwest. He m. Elizabeth, daughter of Sir William Griffith of Penrhyn. At the time of his appointment on 10 April 1532 as one of the stewards and receivers of the manors of Rice Griffith, he was steward of the king's chamber. He was sheriff of Pembrokeshire in 1542. His son Richard (b. 1535) interested himself in Welsh literature (see Pen. MS. 155). He d. on the Thursday after the feast of S. Meugan 1551 (see Pen. MS. 176, 397; _W. Wales Hist. Records_, vii, 161-4) and was succeeded by his young son William Philipps whose wife was Janet Perrot, sister of Sir John Perrot.

It has intermarried at different periods of its more recent history with the Philippses of Cilsant ; the Perrotts of Haroldston ; the Wogans of Wiston ; the Droydens of Northamptonshire ; the Earl of Wicklow's family ; the Leas of Ludstone, Shropshire, and of HagIey, Worcestershire. Among the distinguished men it has supplied in past time may be named Sir John Wogan, Chief Justice of Ireland, Sir Henry Donn, and Sir John Philipps (the Good). Cadifor Fawr, Lord of Blaen-Cych, was father of Bledri, Lord of Cilsant (the place which became so celebrated as the cradle of the clan Philips Philipps, and Phillipps, so widely spread in South Wales) ; and he of Rhys ap Bledri, whose son, Sir Aaron, fought in the Crusades under Richard I., and was made Knight of the Sepulchre. Philip ap Meredith of Cilsant was sixth in direct line from Sir Aaron ; and his son,— Sir Thomas ap Philip, m. Jane, dau. of Sir Henry Donne, Kt., of Picton, who had inherited that place in right of his mother, Catherine, dau. and co-h. of Sir John Wogan of Picton, whose ancestor, Sir John Wogan, Kt., of Wiston, had entered Picton by marrying Joan, dau. and h. of Sir William Picton, the first and only Norman possessor of the place. (See further Picton Castle.) John Philips of Picton, son of Sir Thomas, m. Elizabeth, dau. of Sir William Gruffydd of Penrhyn, co. of Carn., Chamberlain of North Wale. His grandson, — Sir John Philips, was Lord of Picton when Lewys Dwnn, Deputy Herald, visited the place in Oct, 1591, and completed the pedigree of the family up to that date, and the document was signed by him as "John Phillipps," though Dwnn persists in spelling the name according to his own notion of phonography, "Ffylips, Esgwier, Dustus o'r Pies a'r Corwm." He was made a bart. in 1621, and m., as first wife, Ann, dau. of Sir John Perrott, Kt. , of Haroldston, and was s. by his eldest son. — Sir Richard Philipps. Here the name first assumed this form, and has been followed by different branches of the clan ; but the late Sir Thomas Phillipps, of Middlehill, preferred the form adopted by "John Phillipps" in Dwnn. Sir Richard was followed by Sir Erasmus [d. 1697), he by Sir John (d. 1736), and he by a second Sir Erasmus, fifth Bart., who dying s.p., the title devolved on his brother, — Sir John Philipps, sixth Bart. Of another brother, Bulkeley Philipps, hereafter. Sir John was s., 1704, by his only son, — Sir Richard Philipps, seventh Bart., of Picton Castle, cr. Lord Milford 1776, and d. s. p. 1823, when the title became extinct. Bulkeley Philipps, above mentioned, of Abercover, left a dau., Mary Philipps, who m. James Child, Esq., of Begelly, and left an only child of the same name, who, by her first husband, John Grant, Esq., of Nolton, left a son, — Richard Bulkeley Philipps Grant, who became in 1823 heir to the Picton estates under the will of https://archive.org/stream/annalsandantiqu00nichgoog#page/n466/mode/1up Pg.909 Lord Milford, assumed the name and arms of Philipps, was cr. a baronet in 1828, and Baron Milford in 1847.

Picton Castle

Picton Castle in 2013 Picton Castle (Welsh: Castell Pictwn) is a medieval castle near Haverfordwest in Pembrokeshire, Wales. Originally built at the end of the 13th century by a Flemish knight, it later came into the hands of Sir John Wogan, and is till this day inhabited by his descendants, the Philipps family (see Baron Milford and Viscount St Davids). It is of unusual construction and has been remodelled several times during its history. It is a Grade I listed building.

Contents 1 History 2 Visitor attractions 3 See also 4 References 5 External links History Until the late eleventh century, this part of southwestern Wales was part of the Welsh kingdom of Deheubarth. After the death in 1093 of the king of Deheubarth, Rhys ap Tewdwr, in the Battle of Brecon, the Normans took advantage of the lack of leadership among the Welsh. and the English forces seized much of South Wales. To supplement their castle with its garrison at Pembroke, Henry I of England sought to colonise the surrounding area by settling Flemings in Rhos and Deugleddau, in the neighbourhood of Haverfordwest. One of these Flemish barons was Wizo, who built and lived at Wiston Castle. Wizo began to grant estates from the land he had been given to his followers, and one of these knights was granted the land at Picton, which was three miles to the south of Wiston. This Flemish knight was not a great historical figure and his name is not recorded. The site chosen for the castle he built may have been on a mound a few hundred yards to the east of the present house, but in any event, the present building was in place by the end of the thirteenth century and was by then in the hands of the Wogan family, who were now the owners of Wiston Castle.[1]

The circumstances under which Picton Castle came to be owned by the Wogans is unclear, but it may have been through a failure to beget male heirs or through the marriage of an heiress to one of the Wogans. By the 13th century, Wiston Castle seems to have been abandoned and the Wogan family lived at Picton Castle, where their heirs have lived ever since. Picton Castle began as a motte castle and was reconstructed in stone by the Sir John Wogan between 1295 and 1308. The design was unusual, there being no courtyard internally, the main building being protected by seven circular towers which projected from the wall. At the east end, two of these towers acted as a gatehouse, and the portcullised-entrance between them led straight into the lower part of the great hall. At this time the windows were narrow slits but these were replaced in about 1400 by large windows and a grand recessed arch with large window was built in the gatehouse.[1]

In 1405, French troops supporting Owain Glyndŵr attacked and held the Castle, and it was seized again during the English Civil War in 1645 by Parliamentary forces.[2]

Picton castle interior The Picton Castle estate came into the hands of the Philipps family when Sir Thomas ap Philipps of Cilsant married Jane, daughter of Sir Henry Dwnn, and heiress of Picton in the 1490s.[3] Sir John Philipps, who inherited the castle in the 15th century, remodelled the building and created a new entrance which remained until the 1820s when a new entrance was designed by Thomas Rowlands (who also designed Slebech Church).[4] In 1611, King James I wanted to pay for his army in Ireland and decided to raise the money by selling baronetcies. Sir John Philipps paid £1,095 for his hereditary title.[1]

Picton Castle The estate remained with the Philipps family until the death of Lord Milford in 1823, when it was inherited by his cousin Richard Grant, who assumed the surname Philipps and was created a Baronet in 1828 and Baron Milford in 1847. His heir was his half-brother, the Reverend James Henry Alexander Philipps (formerly Gwyther), who assumed by royal licence the surname and arms of Philipps. On his death the estate passed to his son-in-law, Charles Edward Gregg Philipps, who was created a Baronet, of Picton, in 1887 (see Philipps baronets) then to Sir Richard Foley Foley-Philipps, cousin of Sir John Erasmus, and grandson of Charles Edward Gregg Philipps.[3] The estate is now run by the Picton Castle Trust a Registered Charity.[2] The castle is a Grade I listed building and the walled garden is listed at Grade II.

Administrative and biographical history: The Picton Castle estate, Pembrokeshire, was acquired by the Phillips family when Sir Thomas ap Philip of Cilsant married Jane, daughter and heiress of Sir Henry Dwnn, of Picton sometime before 1491. The Philipps also acquired Gelliswick and Kilgetty when Elizabeth Canon married into the Philipps family in the late 17th century. The estate remained in the hands of the Phillips family until the death without issue of Sir Richard Philipps, 7th Bart, Lord Milford, in 1823. The estate was inherited by Sir Richard Bulkeley Grant who assumed the surname and arms of Philipp. His grandmother had been the reputed daughter of Bulkeley Philipps, youngest son of Sir John Philipps, 4th Bart. Sir Richard Bulkeley's heir was his half-brother, the Rev. James Henry Alexander Philipps (formerly Gwyther), who assumed by royal licence the surname and arms of Philipps. On his death the estate passed to his son-in-law, Charles Edward Gregg Philipps. On the death without issue of Sir John Erasmus Gwynne Alexander Philipps in 1948, the estate passed to Sir Richard Foley Foley-Philipps, 4th Bart, cousin of Sir John Erasmus, and grandson of Charles Edward Gregg Philipps, 1st Bart. The Tregyb estate became part of the Picton Castle estate in 1974. According to the 1873 return of owners of land, Rev. John Henry Alexander Philipps, of Picton Castle owned an estimated 21,455 acres in Wales (in Pembrokeshire and Carmarthenshire), with an estimated rental of £23,696.
