The Ancestors and Descendants of John Phipps, of Sherborn, 1757-1847: Abridged from the Phipps Genealogy (Classic Reprint)

By Frederick Lewis Weis

Book Overview

Excerpt from The Ancestors and Descendants of John Phipps, of Sherborn, 1757-1847: Abridged From the Phipps Genealogy

Our ancestor, James Phips, Cotton Mather tells us, came from Bristol, England to New England twenty years after the Mayflower. It is now more carefully stated that James Phips is found settled as a ship-wright near the mouth of the Kennebec River, a little before 1650. But the fact which interests us for the moment is that he came from Bristol, England. He was an Eng lishman. Although we have not been able to trace back his English ancestry, we do possess some information of a Phipps family near Bristol, England - to which family James Phips, our ancestor, was undoubtedly very closely related.
