English Origins of New England Families, 1500s-1800s
Series 2, Volume 2, Rev. Robert Jordan, Page 576, 577
"By the kindness of George D. Phippen, Esq., of Salem; we are enabled to present a document which throws considerable light upon the Jordan pedigree.
He has in his possession a tabular pedigree of his family and connexions in England, prepared at a very early date, by Joseph Phippen or Fitzpen, eldest son of David Phippen the emigrant, and who probably accompanied his father to this country in 1635. He was living at Falmouth in the neighborhood of Jordan as early as 1650, and to him Jordan made one of his earliest conveyances of land.
This document was copied in 1768, upward of a century after its first preparation, and re-copied in 1808, the latter copy being the earliest now in existence. It has upon it the arms of Peirce, Holton, Jordaine, Fitzpen impalling Pie, and Burges impalling pie; these arms are arranged around an emblazoned caption, the text of which had become illegible before the copy of 1808 was taken, as also much of the contents of the numerous bordered enclosures which follow the arms, and which formerly contained the several pedigrees and connexions; enough of which, however, still remains to more than prove this assertions, and which is remarkably corroborated and defects therein supplied by the Herald's Visitation of Cornwall in 1620, now preserved among the Harleian manuscripts in the British Museum."
