ELEANOR PHILIPS
On September 5, 1622, who was in England, agreed to underwrite the cost of Daniel Franck's transportation to Virginia. He was a convicted criminal, after he had been living in the colony a short time, he was found guilty of theft. On February 16, 1624, Franck was listed among those who had died at West and Shirley Hundred sometime after April 1623. On June 5, 1633, Elmer Phillips used Daniel Franck as a headright and indicated that both of them had come to Virginia on the Southampton in 1622. This raises the possibility that there was a familial relationship between Eleanor and Elmer Phillips.
ELMER PHILIPS (PHILLIPS)
Elmer Philips (Phillips) came to Virginia in 1622 on the Southampton. On August 21, 1626, a former resident of West and Shirley Hundred who was living on Jamestown Island (1), testified that he had heard Richard Allford, one of Capt. Roger Smith's servants, admit that he owed work to Robert Marshall. A month later, Philips testified about an event that occurred at Jordan's Point, and in September 1627 he certified John Crannidge's will. By September 20, 1628, Elmer Philips had patented some land on Jamestown Island. He apparently was residing there in January 1629 when he served on a jury twice and certified that the will of Abraham Porter (also of Jamestown) was authentic. By June 5, 1633, Elmer had moved to Elizabeth City. It was then that he patented 100 acres near Fox Hill, using himself and the late Daniel Franck as headrights.
HENRY PHILLIPS

JOHN PHILIPS (PHILLIPS)
On October 11, 1627, John Philips (Phillips) was found guilty of having a sexual relationship with Joan White, who gave birth to a child. John and Joan were sentenced to a whipping and Abraham Piersey, their master and then-owner of Flowerdew Hundred, was ordered to keep them apart. Unless there were two men named John Philips at Flowerdew Hundred, it is probable that the man purportedly killed in the March 1622 Indian attack had, in fact, survived.
