2I. PHILIP (PHILIP 1)

• m.1. 22 Nov. 1677 Gloucester, Mary Blackwell (d.s.p. 3 Jan. 1677/8 Gloucester)
• 2. 30 Oct. 1683 Gloucester, MARY BRAY (b. 13 Apr. 1664), d. of Thomas Bray and Mary Wilson d. 24 Sept. 1728 Gloucester

Philip was a soldier in Capt. Samuel Brocklebank's company during King Philip's War and received £3/8/6 as compensation on 24 Aug. 1676. (1)

After the war, Philip married Mary Blackwell, however, poor Mary died less than six weeks after their marriage: "Mary the wiff of Philep Stainwood descased the 3 of January 1678". (2)

On 16 Mar. 1679 the town gave "to Philip Stainwood seven ackres of ground att Ketle Cove Laid out and bounded by the Lot Layers Leying next unto John Fitchs his lot being the second Lot in numbar one end buting toward the sea." He also received a grant in 1687 of land on Pigeon Hill. (3)

Philip and his brothers were evidently less interested in town affairs than their father was. So far as is known, none of them held any town office of any kind, although, they were involved in the defense of the colony.
