From your other posts I see that Philip's wife was named Elvira which made it easier to find them. You mention Philip ha gone to MA,FL & TX but I found him in VT 1900 census.

Alvira, wife, keeping house, age 24, born NH both parents born NH
George, son age 2, born VT father born VT mother born NH
Clara, daughter, age 2/12 (April) born VT father born VT motehr born NH
** so it looks like Philip's birthplace is different in different census years, as well as birth places of his parents. I haven't found Archibald and Mary yet either.
