The Phillips DNA Project has almost 600 participants who have been DNA tested and more than 70 distinct, unrelated Phillips families have been identified through DNA analysis thus far. More participation from the British Isles and mainland Europe is sought in an attempt to identify the deep roots of all Phillips families worldwide and help prove geographic migration patterns.

If you are a male Phillips (or any variation of the name Phillips) and you live in the United Kingdom, Ireland or mainland Europe, the Phillips DNA Project and One-Name Study may be willing to pay for your Y-DNA test if you are willing to supply a Phillips family tree that traces back at least five generations! See our Flyer.
The DNA test is painless and only consists of swabbing the inside of the cheek to obtain cheek cells for analysis. The lab mails a kit to the participant who then returns his samples to the lab in a pre-addressed envelope. The kit is given a number and this is the only way the DNA results are ever publicly identified to preserve everyone’s privacy.
