04/13/2009: Fiftieth Phillips Family Group Identified! Print E-mail
Monday, 13 April 2009 00:15
DNA analysis has just established our 50th Phillips family group, the Lee Cester Phillips family of Overton County, Tennessee.   In addition to our 50 family groups, we have over 100 men named Phillips whose DNA does not match anyone else in the project.   This is almost one-third of all of our members.  DNA analysis has conclusively proven that we do not all descend from a single Phillips family, so do not be hoodwinked into purchasing a universal Phillips family coat-of-arms or crest.   One size does not fit all!
