John Sandall Phillips was born on 13th October 1869 at Islington in the northern suburbs of London, son of Catherine Phillips, formerly Sandall, and her husband John Phillips, a butcher and packer. The 1871 census finds John living with his parents and siblings living at 2 Archway Road in Islington. By 1881 they had moved within Islington to 5 Eaton Grove. John's mother died between the 1881 and 1891 censuses, and the 1891 census finds John living with his father and siblings at 33 Wedmore Street in Islington. By this time, John was working as a porter for a confectioner.
On 15th April 1895, aged 25, John married Lily Louisa Savage at All Saints' Church in the Tufnell Park area of Islington. They went on to have a daughter in 1897 and a son in 1903. The 1901 census finds John, Lily and their daughter living at 18 Landseer Road in Islington. Lily's mother and two brothers lived in the same house. John was described as a packer for a druggist at this time.
Sometime between 1903 and 1911 the family left London and moved to Dartford in Kent. The move may have been connected to John's work as a packer in the pharmaceuticals industry, as one of Dartford's main employers at the time was drug company Burroughs Wellcome. Lily's brother Walter Edmund also worked as a chemical export packer and also moved from London to Dartford around the same time with his family.
The 1911 census finds John and Lily living at 183 Fulwich Road in Dartford, along with their children and Lily's mother. John described himself as an export packer for a manufacturing chemist. Lily's brother Walter and his family lived a few doors down the same street.
By the outbreak of the Second World War, John and Lily had left Dartford and moved to the nearby village of Hartley, where they lived with their son Cyril and his family in a house called Trevone on Ash Road. John described himself as a retired foreman packer.
Lily died in February 1945, aged 72. John survived her by ten years. In that time he left Trevone and moved to a bungalow directly opposite it called "Joh-San" - the name would suggest that he named the house after himself. John died at the age of 85, and was buried at Hartley on 26th February 1955.
