Notes by Paul Dimmett


JOHN PHILLIPS (abt 1778-1860)
John Phillips was born in North Carolina in about 1778. He apparently
grew up in that state as he was married in Surry County on January 28,
1799 to Agnes Gentry. By at least 1804, they had moved to Kentucky.
The story is told that as John, his brother Edmond and other families;
possibly including the Chinns, were traveling through Kentucky when
they camped in the forest at night. On one night, they heard a noise
as something rustled the bushes near their camp. As the men
investigated to determine the source of the noise, i.e. bear, wolf,
Indian etc; they found it to be a young boy named Wilcey Walker.
After he had been fed, he explained how he happened to be running
around in the woods. He had been traveling with his parents. As he
was gathering firewood one evening, Indians raided their camp and
killed his parents. Since that time he had been wandering around in
the woods alone. When the men asked him what he wanted to do now he
said, "I want to go in that wagon there." He had pointed at the wagon
of John Phillips and continued to live with him.
The 1810 census for Kentucky included 14 men named John Phillips. The
one in Franklin County had two boys and three girls under age ten. He
and his wife were between 26 - 45 years old. This unique combination
most nearly fits that of our ancestor.
In approximately 1816, John Phillips moved to Warrick County, Indiana.
He and his wife settled on land in the north-east part of the county
and remained there for the rest of his life. He was apparently a
successful farmer as his holding eventually consisted of at least six
separate plots of land.
In 1931 a local committee was formed to compile evidence that the
Lincoln family passed through Warrick County when they moved to
Illinois in 1830. A governor's committee had earlier reported that a
"Lincoln Trail" should be established on a more northern route.
Several affidavits in the Warrick County Lincoln Route Association
report mentioned the Phillips family as follows: "At the spring near
the little Zion Baptist Church on the John Phillips farm the Lincolns
stopped to go into camp for the night. Edmond Phillips, a son of John
Phillips, saw the party there and notified his father who sent Edmond
back to invite them to come to his house and stay without cost which
they did. After Lincoln's election, Edmond often boasted that he had
one time entertained the president of the United States."
The 1850 census for Warrick County includes John Phillips at age 72
and Agnes 70 in Pigeon Township. In their household were Christopher
Posey 16 and James Posey 10.

After Agnes died on January 4, 1852, John wrote his will on April 23
as follows:
In the name of God amen I John Phillips Senr. of Warrick County,
Indiana, do make and publish this my last will and testament hereby
revoking all former wills by me heretofore made. My will and desire
is that all my just debts be paid. The proceeds of my stock of horses,
