Original sources that David Trimble gave for his work was Berks Co., PA tax lists, 1762-67; Hollenbach, op.cit., p 17; Rowan County tax lists 1768, 1772, 1778. Court of Pleas & Quarter Sessions Minutes, 1773. 1778. 1780. 1787.
  
  Philip Beck was born about 1741 in Germany and lived in Hereford Township, Berks County, Pennsylvania, in 1758; he paid taxes there from 1762 to 1767 and about 1763 he married Catherine (surname unknown.) They moved to Rowan County, North Carolina, where he paid taxes in 1768. He was appointed a road overseer on February 7, 1773, and later was a constable. On August 7, 1787, he was granted a license to operate an ordinary. He was evidently a Tory sympathizer, but on August 6, 1778, he was given permission to take the oath of allegiance to North Carolina; on August 8 the court reported that he had not taken it.
  
  Beck received a grant of 330 acres on the waters of Pott's creek and sold 101 acres of it to Henry Clement on April 18, 1795. On January 21, 1784, he bought 57 acres from Thomas Carson. On May 15, 1802, he bought 40 acres on Swan's Creek from Charles Payne. On November 14, 1814, he gave 44 acres to his son Adam. On June 14, 1815, he gave 87 acres to son Henry and 145 acres to his son Davault; on January 23, 1816, he gave 40 acres to son George and received 39 acres from George.
  
  Philip made his will on March 1, 1817, leaving his property to his wife and children, and the estate was probated in May, 1817.
  
  The children of Philip and Catherine Beck were: Anna Maria Catherine, John Philip, Jacob, Peter, Margaret, Barbara, John, George, Adam, Henry and Davault.
