Dear DDJJAke (Henderson)

Thank you for your reply. I am looking for info on Robert Philp, born St Andrews 1849 and as a child went to Tasmania (Australia). He later became a Methodist Minister.

Do you have any links to the Philps.

Regards,

Peter Philp

Hi to you to DDJJake,

I am in Australia. We are nearing the centre of our winter but the weather is still mild.I will be in Scotland in August to enjoy some of your summer.

Thank you very much for the information you have sent on the Philps. I have drawn complete blanks in tracking them back to Scotland but your info is very valuable.

Do you have a connection with any of the Philps? Also is there a Philp clan and if so do they have a coat of arms? My mother's family were from Ireland ( rebels who fought Queen Elizabeth I). Before arriving in Scotland we will be attending a clan meeting with that side of the family.

Thanks again. Any additional info would be very valuable.


Regards,

Peter Philp
