Charity,
I'm descd. from Phillip's daughter, Celia, who mar. Zachariah Graham. And I am also searching for his parents.
Was he in the Carolinas before Ky.?
Re the children's middle names: There was an Ellis family in La., same era; Dyson, you probably know, was his wife's maiden name. There was a Leslie Bankston, b 1765, same area & time.Phillip's mother-in-law had been a Bankston, which may account for naming a son Leslie.
I've been trying to account for his middle name, which I have found both as Powell and Powers. Have you seen a document actually bearing a mdl name & not the initial, P?
