Notes Married:
- There is confusion about Philip's second marriage, some sources saying he married Ithamar Warfield 30 Aug 1700 and others saying he married Joanna Warfield (intention) on the same date and that he married Ithamar as his 3rd wife some years later. This confusion may have arisen because both records appear in the same transcription of the Rehoboth vital records. In the groom's record (p. 10) Philip married Joanna and in the bride's record (p. 508) Ithamer married Philip. Neither Best nor Torrey mentions Joanna, but the History of Oxford says she died in 1711 in Mendon and attributes several of Philip's children to her. This is not correct, however, as Mendon vital records say these same children were born to Philip and Ithamar. I have found no other record for Joanna, but I have found Ithamar's birth record. I am not satisfied that Joanna existed and have not included her as one of Philip's wives. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
