 [[John M. Phillips]] in about 1905 purchased property further out Brownsville Road at 2336, and built a house there for himself and his mother (Location 1 on the map below).  He remodeled and enlarged it after he married [[Harriet Duff Phillips]] in 1906 and bought the adjacent Wyland property that had a barn.  The house was called “[[Impton]]” by the family because his initials (JMP) that were etched on the glass on the entrance door looked like IMP.  [[Robert F. Phillips]] and his wife, Bess Harriet's sister, bought property further out Brownsville Road at 2920 (No. 2).  These two homes are shown below.

	It appears that James (1) in about 1849 may have began marketing iron products, such as nails and hardware, for Kittanning Iron under the name of Brown, Phillips & Co. He would have had the contacts to market these products and was probably recruited by James E. Brown who was associated with Kittanning Iron. This business continued until about 1855 when Floyd replaced the Phillips in the partnership. James would have been about 69 years old then. The Pittsburgh warehouse for Brown Phillips & Co. in 1852 was located at 99 Water Street, between Wood and Market streets in Pittsburgh (Location 4 left) near where James (1) was first located on Fourth Street. The Brown, Floyd & Co. moved a few doors down to 108 Water Street (also Location 4) which appears to have been a new building.
