Philip was a long time resident of Tiverton, Rhode Island. When it came time to defend his beliefs against the British during the Revolutionary War he joined the Rhode Island Militia. He is listed in Isaac Cooks records as a Leuitenant in the 1777 Military Census of Rhode Island town of Tiverton. In the DAR index he is listed as a Captain in the 1st Co. Rhode Island. His Mayflower index number is 47740.
It appears from different records that he owned property in Westport Point, Massachusetts. A record of this can be found in a 1798 tax roll taken on this property. There is also evidence that he was involved in ship building and sailing of these ships from a contract agreement between him and a brother.
The Corey Society of America has in its records a copy of a Revolutionary War payroll that lists Philip as Lieutenant in Capt. Isaac Cook's Camp in Col. John Cook's Regt. of Militia in the Service of the United States from the 21st to the 31st of July 1778 For Wages of Subsistance Money. This record along with others in the sources are accepted as primary evidence by the SAR/DAR and General Descendants of the Mayflower Society.
