The Philipse Family Crest
The Philipses of Philipsboro', who count among the manor Lords of old New York, obtained their grant in 1693. The grantee of the letters patent was Vrederijck Felypsen, the emigrant, who had come from the Netherlands. Genealogists have attempted to trace the family to the Felypses, of Bohemia; but, in the earlier generations, the pedigree seems hardly substantiated. Great analogy exists between the coat of arms used actually by that family and the armorial devices of the Phillips of county Norfolk, settlers in Massachusetts. The Gore Roll of Arms furnishes the other shield.
