From The Rockefeller Family And it's Connection to the Sharpe Family by D. A. Sharpe November 5, 2006 Updated Editions Posted on the Internet: http://www.dasharpe.com/geneology/Rockefeller_Line.pdf

COLONEL JOHANN PHILIP ROCKEFELLER Philip was described as energetic, intelligent, shrewd, and a success in business. His mentor was his father. Public documents on file reflect Philip's name with some frequency, indicating his standing in the community and his abilities. In May 1775, John Kortz and Philip were representatives to the first Colonial Congress held in New York City. They represented the district of German Camp (Germantown).

In 1790, he purchased rights of many bounty lands from soldiers. He was Supervisor of Germantown, 1975 - 1798 and again in 1800. He served his community as a Justice of the Peace, 1789 to 1795. His political party was the Whigs and his politics brought him in the direction of moving the town from a onarchial to a Republican form of government.

He served bet. 1777 - 1781, as an Adjutant in the Albany County Militia, Tenth Regiment, Colonel Henry Livingston.

His Lutheran heritage is shown by his election as one of the first trustees of the Reformed Church in East Camp in 1784. He owned a store in 1808, as well as a landing.
