Dear Sarah Grantham,
Although I might not usually get into this, I'm very interested in that
will of Frederick Lanthrope and have done quite a bit of research on the
Lanthrope family.
To answer your question, yes, those surnames are all interchangeable.
The confusion about the surname is owed to the fact that LANTHROP and
LANTHROPE are pronounced "LAN-TRIP" in England.
My PHILLIPS family was in Prince George County in the early 1700s, and
they were neighbors of the LANTHROPE/LANTRIP/LANTHROP family there.
Among the families living on Second Swamp in Prince George Couty were:
PHILLIPS, LANTHROP and LEDBETTER. All of them go back to the early 1700s in
Prince George and on Second Swamp.
Thanks for posting that message.
Mary Jane Phillips-Matz
