The location of the sons of Japheth is an important task of identifying the nations of the world and the blessings given to Japheth by God through Noah. The sons of Japheth: Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras. The sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah. The sons of Javan: Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim. From these the coastland peoples spread. These are the sons of Japheth in their lands, each with his own language, by their families, in their nations.
When broadly referring to all the descendants of Japheth, yes, Japhethites is the correct term.

Were shem ham japheth triplets?
This is a difficulty. Noah's wife could not have three pregnancies all in Noah's 500th year. However, it is said that Noah was 600 when he went into the ark. His son, Shem begot Arphaxad when Shem was 100, two years after the flood. (Gen. 11: 10). This means Noah must have been 502, when Shem was born. Gen. 10: 21 calls Shem the "brother of Japheth the elder" in the NKJV. Some other translations say, “Shem the older brother of Japheth.” So, it is hard to determine the correct birth order. Gen. 9: 24 calls Ham, Noah’s “younger son” in the NKJV. Again, other translations call him the “youngest son.” This still doesn’t address the triplet question, though. Multiple births still emphasize birth order. A lot is made of Esau having the rights of the first-born, even though Jacob is his twin. What could be meant is that Noah was “about 500” when his three sons were born. But this seems a bit unsatisfactory, doesn’t it?
Is an in-law legally considered a descendant?
No. Descendants are your biological children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, and so on. Some people call these blood relatives, but not all your blood relatives are your descendants. For example, your first cousin is a "blood relative" but not your descendant. On the other hand, everyone is descended from someone, so everyone is a descendant - just not yours.

Are there religious groups of modern day Pharisees?
Answer 1I don't think so but the word "Pharisee" has taken up a connotation that means a person who self-righteously follows minute religious regulations and feels holier than those who don't. There are lots of those.Answer 2It is important to note that most Jews today consider themselves the descendants of the Pharisees and of having inherited their interpretations of tradition in the same way that most Christians see themselves as spiritual descendants of the Apostles. But just as Christians do not call themselves "the Apostles", modern Jews do not call themselves "Pharisees".
