    Biography
    • From History of Erie County, Pennsylvania (Reed):
      Louis Phillips, president of American State Bank, is one of Erie's enterprising and successful business men. He was born in Italy, June 18, 1865, and is a son of Gesualdo and Philomena (Guisti) Phillips.
      Gesualdo Phillips was born in Italy in 1826 and died there in 1911. His wife was born in 1844 and died in 1903. They were the parents of the following children: Louis, the subject of this sketch; Alameno, deceased; Fulvia, deceased; Fortunato, lives in Cleveland; Fuldio, deceased; Crolinda, lives in Erie and three children died in infancy.
      Louis Phillips was reared and educated in his native land and came to this country in 1890. He worked at his trade of carpenter for four years and then opened a small fruit stand on West 12th Street. In 1895 he established an office on West 16th Street, where he dealt in the remittance of steamship and foreign money orders. He also maintained a fruit store and became one of the leading wholesale fruit dealers of the city. The business which is now owned by his son is located at 16th and State streets.
      The bank was organized by Mr. Phillips as a private bank in 1921, and on March 10, 1924, was incorporated as American State Bank. The officers are as follows: Louis Phillips, president; Angelo Phillips, vice-president; Jennie Phillips, cashier; and Joseph Phillips, secretary. The directors are: Louis, Joseph, Angelo, Mary and Elizabeth Phillips.
      On Jan. 13, 1894, Mr. Phillips was married to Miss Eliza Casciani, a native of Italy, born Aug. 28, 1867. To this union the following children were born: John, a general contractor, lives at Erie, married Nardina Petrucella, and they have two children, Elizabeth and Mary; Mary, at home; Joseph, engaged in the fruit business at Erie; Jennie, cashier in her father's bank; Angelo, general manager and part owner of the fruit business, married Amelia Bevilacqua, and they have one son, Robert; Gemma, Marreno, and Albert, all students, and three children died in infancy.
      Mr. Phillips is a Republican and has been a member of St. Paul's Catholic Church since 1892. He belongs to the Sons of Italy and the Italian National Club. Mr. Phillips is an energetic man who stands well in the esteem of his neighbors and fellow citizens.
