An Evaluation of the Phillips Family of Vermont, in particular Antoine Philips and his wife Catherine Cadaive - Part 2

EUGENICS SURVEY INFORMATION
References to Negro Ancestry

1.     “Their oral conditions are extremely inaccurate.”

In part, this statement might have had some merit, but not always.

2.     “Many members of the family today have no idea as to their own ages, much less as to the dates and places of their own births.”

3.     “It is not known whether “Old Antoine” had Negro blood or not” but there is no question that most, if not ...

Well, the Negroid physical characteristic's being observed by Ms. Abbott and others where these Phillips family members traveled to, or stayed at, wasn't a figment of someone's imagination ... then again, back in 1926-1935 Ms. Abbott didn't have a computer or a DNA test kit either!

4.     “… all of his children had Negro blood.” It is of course possible that it was his wife who brought the…

5.     “ … Negro blood into the family.”

Obviously, Ms. Harriet Abbott did not attempt to become aware or to research, any further than she had to, by visiting the Phillips family themselves, and or those that had or were interacted or observing this family. She clearly had no idea who Catherine Cadaive who had married to Antoine Phillips was, let alone her parentage.

Negro: a member of a dark-skinned group of peoples originally native to Africa south of the Sahara.

i.e. relating to black people.

6.     Antoine Phillips Jr. was commonly known as Black Phillips’ …” 

He did not marry to Aurelia Dube; rather, the maiden name is in fact, Violi.  AurĂ©lie Marie Violi was the daughter of Joseph Violi and Marie Ann Audet dit LeMay. 

7.     “ … a mulatto family by the name of Prince … looked upon as colored people …” 

8.     “Jane (nee: Phillips) Peters, daughter of Antoine Phillips and Catherine Emery dit Coderre on her Death Record she is recorded as being ‘colored’ …” 

Mary Jane Phillips married to George Lyman Peters, who was of Hinesburg, Chittenden County, Vermont

9.     “Ruth Peters, having stayed with her grandmother Jane (nee: Phillips) Peters. In the Vermont Industrial school record, it is recorded that Ruth’s father, is ‘colored.’”

10.“Peter Phillips Sr. was part Negro. On his Death Certificate in Peacham, VT he is recorded as ‘colored.’ He was very distinctly Negroid in appearance.”



11.“ … “Old Pete” Phillips was part Negro …”

Indeed, consistently, he was identified as Mulatto in the historical records within Vermont.

12.“As to race, they were originally part French and Negro …”

Again, as has been researched, the Phillips family began with Antoine Phillips (Black) and Catherine Cadaive (French).

13.“ … Peter Phillips, [son of Peter Phillips Sr.] when interviewed in 1926 he was a large, stout follow, big broad shouldered, with a round face and Negroid … characteristics.”

14.In Williston it is recorded that a child Celia Phillips was born to Peter Phillips Sr. in 1859, and her color was recorded as black.

15.“In 1926 Selina, [Peter Phillips Sr.’s daughter], was dark and swarthy. She had a soft voice and as she says, “Yes, missis,” her voice and intonation remind one of the southern Negro.”

16.“After her marriage Melinda Phillips Myers settled down and has become an unusually fine citizen.  She has the good qualities of the better class of colored people.”

17.“Melinda has a number of daughters who have married well and she has a number of nice grandchildren. The visitor thought that possibly she did not wish the husbands of her daughters to know about the colored blood in the family.”

18.“In 1926 Mrs. Melinda Phillips Myers was a stout, healthy-looking woman.  She was very swarthy and showed her colored blood to some extent.”

19.“In 1926 Louis and Matilda and their children and grandchildren were living in Bald Mountain, near Greenwich, N.Y. In the house were Louis, Matilda, all of their children, and three grandchildren. Also Irene Phillips, daughter of Peter Phillips the second, was visiting there. Peter the third had lived there a great deal and Peter the second made that house his headquarters. On the day that Agent H.E.A. arrived, Peter Phillips the second had just left there for Vermont.

a.      There was a great variety in the color of the children. Some of them were very dark and unquestionably Negroid. There were all grades of color. Some of those who are most apparently Negroid have gray eyes.”

20.“Jacob Phillips [son of Peter Phillips Sr. and Eliza Way] was the first person from whom any information of value was obtained in regard to the Phillips Pedigree … Agent H.E.A. saw Jacob Phillips early in 1926. He is quite dark, shows his colored blood slightly, but most people would not recognize it … The people in the village rather laugh at Jake, take it for granted that he is part Negro …”

21.“Mary Agnes Phillips who married Harrison Jerome and who manifestly has colored blood.”

22.“Mrs. Fred Mansfield of Stowe, Vt., (a maternal cousin of Agnes although Mrs. Mansfield is a grandmother) has seen Agnes.  She says that she is very dark, has thick lips and looks as if she had Negro blood.”

23.“Stephen Bissette was born in Winooski, Vt., December 21, 1887.  His name is given variously as Stephen, Stanley, and George Stephen Bissette … In the birth record of one of his children, Stephen is recorded as being colored.”



24.On page 11 of the Eugenics, "For example, they tell of some member of their tribe [meaning family] living to be 111 years old etc, when there is no good evidence of that the age was as far advanced as that."

Now, No. 24 is going to be paramount to the DISCOVERY of Antoine Phillips Sr. paternal parentage.  

But the first step that I took, aside from reviewing the Eugenics Survey of Vermont, was to secure the 1850 Federal Population Census, of Highgate, Franklin County, Vermont. 


August 05, 1850 Highgate, Franklin County, Vermont Census

Antoine Phillps Sr. Age 36 [Identified as B (for Black or Dark Complexioned)] Born in Canada, Cannot Read nor Write.

Antoine b. ca. 1814 Black Canada
Katherine b. ca. 1820 Canada
Children:
Peter b. ca. 1829 Mulatto Canada
Antoine b. ca. 1834 Mulatto Canada
Michael b. ca. 1836 Mulatto Canada
Melnas b. ca. 1838 Mulatto Canada
Favine b. ca. 1846 Mulatto Canada
Janett b. ca. 1848 Mulatto Canada

While the surmised ages of the parents are 'off' and distorted, the age's for the children of this couple are 'close' and fairly accurate. 

This placed them in Highgate, Franklin County, Vermont. Next, I sought out Land Records:

As one can discern, as the chronology of the Land Record transactions went from 1845 to 1858, it was Daniel P. Oliver who obtained the land, that previously was held by Antwine Philips and his wife held, as well as their son Peter Philips, before the Phillips family moved to Williston, Vermont, that summer of 1856. As one would say, it's all about location, location, location, and who your neighbors are, of course.

Restrospectively-speaking, on September 19, 2010 ... I posted in this blog a particularly interesting Baptismal Record:


136. Baptism of Antoine Philipp Jr.
7th day of July, 1834
St. Hyacinthe, Quebec, Canada
Notre Dame de Rosaire
He was "illegitime"?
son of Antoine Sr. (?) Philipp
Catherine Cadere dit Emery

Indeed this is the CORRECT genealogical footprint (document) of Antwine Philips/ in french "Philippe" for not only Catherine, his wife, but also his son, Antoine Philips Jr.

Baptismal Record – Notre Dame du Rosaire Parish, Ste. Hyacinthe, Quebec, Canada
1834Antoine PhilippBorn June 15, 1834 Baptized July 07, 1834
Catherine CodĂ©rre dit Émery    ___________ Philipp                                   
Godfather: Francois Xavier Brault
Godmother: Adelaide Breult
Child was identified as “illegitimate” – Was one parent NOT Catholic, and the mother was? And the N.D. du Rosaire Priest would not “recognize” the parent’s marriage, and thus “labeled” Antoine Jr. as such?

And once the 'genealogical key' was found, and re-evaluated, the genealogical doorway was opened ... not only into the truthful identity of Catherine "Cadaive" but rather Catherine Ă‰mery dit CodĂ©rre who had married Antwine Philips/ Antoine PhilippĂ©, but also to the composition and movements of this family. The confirmation that this Catherine Ă‰mery dit CodĂ©rre was and is the CORRECT woman who married to Antwine/Antoine Phillips of Highgate, Franklin County, Vermont has been confirmed by genetic DNA results and the evaluation of the Phillips / Ă‰mery dit CodĂ©rre descendants who have tested both at FTDNA and AncestryDNA.

Catherine "Cadaive" / Cadeux wasn't

Her name was Catherine Ă‰mery dit CodĂ©rre

Born to Pierre Ă‰mery dit CodĂ©rre
-and-
Marie Louise Brisard dit St. Germain
of 
Notre Dame du Rosaire Catholic Parish
in
Ste. Hyacinthe, Quebec, Canada


"Old Antoine wife Catherine Cadaive or Cadieux the only thing Grandma Josephine knew on her that her Grandmother Catherine "Great- Grandmother was Autumn Wind who's father was a Great Chief of her people Grandmother Josephine said they were Indian she said they came from Canada."

How could Josephine (nee: Phillips) who married to Frank Mitchell Blais/ Blake on Feb. 21, 1897 in Monkton, Addison County, VT (and who was born march 08, 1880 in Colchester, VT and died in 1959 in Queensbury, NY) know that her grandmother's father was a Great Chief of her people, and that he was an Indian, when she didn't even know who Catherine's father's name was, let alone where her own paternal grandparents honestly came from, respectfully?

Genealogically-speaking Pierre Ă‰mery dit CodĂ©rre was 100% percent FRENCH. His wife Marie Louise Brisard dit St. Germain also identified throughout her life as 100% percent FRENCH, as did their daughter Catherine, and her siblings!

Understand?

It is DISTANT HURON Ancestral Connection(s), that is NOT ABENAKI. 

And yet, most of these Phillips descendants have and do claim to be "Abenakis" ...

Again, genealogically speaking, how is it that these Phillips descendants at Abenaki? Missisquoi? Nulhegan? El-Nu? or Koasek?
