Our 54th Phillips Family Group has been identified through DNA analysis!  Although the current family lives in Costa Rica, they trace their roots back to Scotland in the 1600s.  The yDNA of this Phillips family group is somewhat unusual; according to the noted expert Dr. Ken Nordtvelt, they appear to belong to Haplogroup I2a2-Isles-D clade.
