St. George, Henry, 1581-1644

Sir Thomas Phillipps was an English antiquary and collector. On inheriting his father's estate at Middle Hill in Worcestershire, he embarked on a career of collecting books and manuscripts. His manuscript collection eventually contained over 60,000 items. Phillipps was a keen genealogist and copied out and annotated a number of manuscript pedigrees, some of which he later had printed at his Middle Hill Press.
