Philip married Sarah 'Sally' Denisia Minor in 1829 Knox, Indiana. They were the parents of five sons, William, George W.,Thomas, Robert H., & Francis M. Chambers.
After the death of his parents and wife, Phillip is seen living with his youngest son, FM Chambers and daughter-in-law, Adda Flintham in Compromise, Champaign, Illinois in 1870. He died before 1880 when his son moved to Terre Haute, Indiana.
