Notice biographique
Philip Bannister was born in 1860 or 1861 in Rockland, New Brunswick. He was the son of Jeremiah Bannister, born 1818 at Sackville, N.B., and Jane Lounsbury. Jeremiah apparently worked as a constable and as a ship's carpenter. Philip's younger brother, Jonas, born around 1865, died 13 October 1882 of massive injuries after falling from the upper main topsail. He was buried at sea that evening.
Philip was a cook and steward on board a number of sailing vessels, most of which were either built in Saint John or in Saint Martin's, N.B: "Frederica", "Daphne", "Cricket", "Orontes", "Maiden City", and the "Katahdin". He married Elizabeth R. Boutilier of Glace Bay, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia on 6 October 1887. They had two daughters, Sarah, and Bell, and a son, Robbie.
