A man with the last name Hendricks joined the project and his DNA matches Phillips Family Group 11. There had been a rumor in his family for over 100 years that his grandfather was the illegitimate son of a man named Tilton Phillips who was born 1861 in Miller Co MO, and now DNA has substantiated that rumor. Tilton traces back to Michael Phillips who was born 1623 in Sussex Co England. This is also exciting for the rest of the group, because it confirms Michael as the Earliest Known Ancestor of this family group.
