• PHIPPS, SAMUEL, DAR Ancestor #: A090913 amuel Phipps was born in Chester County, Pennsylvania, the son of Nathan and Sarah Davis Phipps. He was a great grandson of the original immigrant ancestor, Joseph and his wife Sarah Binfield Phipps of England. During the Revolutionary War, he served as a private in Captain Joseph Johnson's Company, 6th Class, 4th Battalion of Goshen Township, Chester County, Pa.

Samuel appears to have been a man of remarkable vigor, living past the age of 105. He and Mary moved from Pennsylvania to a farm in Butler, Ohio in 1815, where his son Robert had settled. Samuel was buried behind his wagonshed in the family burial grounds. This land became a field on the property of the Mishey farm. Sam's original headstone was destroyed and his grave was plowed under. A memorial marker erected by the Constitution Chapter of the Ohio S.A.R. stands near the intersection of US Route 97 and Highland Avenue, behind the "Welcome to Bulter" sign to mark his life and military service.
