Philip Watson was baptised on 6th April 1778 at Great Wymondley in Hertfordshire, son of George and Frances Watson.

On 4th February 1801, Philip married Sarah Primet, who was also from Great Wymondley. They went on to have five children baptised at Great Wymondley between 1801 and 1811. They then moved to the neighbouring parish of Little Wymondley, where they had a further three children baptised between 1814 and 1819.

By 1841 Philip and Sarah were living with their son John at Gosmore in the parish of St Ippolyts, a couple of miles west of the Wymondleys. Philip was described as an agricultural labourer.

Philip died in 1846, aged 68. He was buried at St Ippolyts on 18th July 1846. His last abode was given as Thistley Farm, just south of Gosmore. Sarah survived him by nineteen years.
