Phebe Paul was born 22 November 1870 in Maine, the daughter of Richard Rush Paul and his wife Patience B. (Stephenson) Paul, both born in mid-coastal Maine.  Phebe's paternal grandparents were Samuel and Charity (Mansfield) Paul.  Her maternal grandparents were Jerome and Phoebe B.

I found Phebe in the Censuses from 1880 and 1900-1930.  She was still going by the name Phebe Paul in 1930.
