From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:

  Stephanas
     crown, a member of the church at Corinth, whose family were
     among those the apostle had baptized (1 Cor. 1:16; 16:15, 17).
     He has been supposed by some to have been the "jailer of
     Philippi" (comp. Acts 16:33). The First Epistle to the
     Corinthians was written from Philippi some six years after the


     jailer's conversion, and he was with the apostle there at that
     time.
