The goals for the Philpot project are not limited to testing my genealogy questions. All branches and variations of the Philpot (Phillpott, Phillpotts, Phillpot, Phillpots, Philpot, Philpots, Philpott, Filpot, Fillpot etc.)surname are welcome to join so that we may connect the histories of the family. The only requirement, of course, is direct paternal relation to a Philpot since we are testing the Y-chromosome.
