From "Notes on the Geneology of the Phillips family" by Eric Phillips, 1951
I don't know what Lawrance David's youngest son, my grandfather, did in his younger days but he managed to die a rich man. In the latter part of his life he ran a Pall Mall cigar shop, Carlin's, with my uncle Randolph and lived in a large rather gloomy villa in Maida Vale, now destroyed. My father, L. Stanley Phillips, started in a Stock Exchange firm (perhaps that of his Solomon relatives?) and joined (and later ran) his father-in-law's cigar importing and manufacturing firm, John Hunter Morris and Elkan Ltd. when he married at 23. He lived in Cricklewood, Maida Vale (a pretty early Victorian villa called Holland House destroyed some eight years ago, where I was born), Gloucester Terrace, Bayswater, Hanover Terrace, Regents Park, and, after the war, in a flat in Upper Harley Street, where he died. My Uncle Harold's wife was the daughter of Dr. Profeit, the Surgeon and Commissioner to Queen Victoria at Balmoral at the time of John Brown and after (i.e. he was both family doctor and agent for running the estate) and the Queen was her godmother. Harold died in 1978 at Ballater at the age of 101.
