Marylandwas established with religious freedom for Catholics. The colonial economy was based on tobacco cultivated by Africans who had been enslaved.

Phillip Lynes was born about 1749 in England.

His wife was named Anne.

He kept an ordinary near the court house in Charles County, Maryland.

Phillip died in August, 1709 in Charles County, Maryland. He left bequests to his wife Ann, Jane Seymour, wife of Governor John Seymour, cousins Mary Contee and William Bladen, James Wooten, Rector of St. Anne's, Colonel Thomas Greenfield, Amos Garrett, Mrs. Francis and Mrs. Judith Townley and "brother" Captain Thomas Seymour. By describing Thomas Seymour as his"brother," Phillip indicated that either his wife, Anne, was a Seymour or that his sister had married Captain Seymour.

Anne died in 1711.
