Notes:

Philip inherited a large landed estate in Back Neck, on which he resided. The estate later was owned by one of the heirs of Ephraim Mulford. Philip was considered one of the largest & most successful farmers in that neighborhood. Tradition has it that he was the first to own a covered wagon. It was then the custom to travel by horseback. Philip left a large real & personal estate to his children. Philip had been a deacon of the church & was one of the most prominent citizens of Cumberland Co. The inventory of his property at the time of his death amounted to 580 Pounds & 6 Shillings. He was buried in the Baptist Cemetery near Sheppard's Mill.
