Philip was born in Brussels, Ontario, Canada. Philip and Gertrude's daughter-in-law, May Jury Botz's family was also involved in a similar type meeting at the [[Newbern Assembly, KS|Newbern church], a split from nearby [[Grace and Truth Gospel Chapel, KS|Grace and Truth Gospel Hall]], a Grant assembly that existed prior to 1909 to 2010, which eventually joined the Open Brethren (OB), and by the 1950's, known as the Gospel Chapel, of which hived a similar type Brethren meeting in Elm Springs from 1938-1977, as well as bible studies in Salina in the 1960's that resulted in [[Sunset Bible Chapel, KS|Sunset Bible Chapel]], which still exists to this day.
Correspondents for the Talmage meeting room (TW-Lowe EB) that may have met later with the Grant meeting in Manchester include Alexander Henry Martin Sr. (1850-1935), A.H. Seymour, George William Miller (1825-1908), J.T. Moore, & George Wate Brown (1879-1959). From +1878-1880+, Howard William Kann (b. 1846 Adams Co., PA - d. 1930 Spokane, WA) and his wife Emma Susan Benner Kann (b. 1857 Gettysburg, Adams, PA - d. 1938 Spokane, WA) resided in Cheever township in Dickinson Co., KS. By 1896 they were residing in Spokane. Their daughter Lilly May Kann (b. 1878 Cheever Twp., Dickinson, KS - d. 1944 Walla Walla, WA) was married in 1906 to Jeptha "Charles" Thonney (b. 1883 Walla Walla, WA - d. 1950 Kirkland, King, WA) who was raised in the [[Walla Walla Meeting Room, WA]] (TW-eb), a descendant of the founder, Jean Gabriel Thonney (b. 1827 Vullien, Vaud, Switzerland - d. 1902 WW, WA). By 1944, Lilly was in fellowship with that meeting with Charles. It is arguable that Howard & Emma Kann (or Lilly) could have been in fellowship in either the meeting at Chapman or Manchester.
