Phoebe Mary (Bashaw) Porter

This is my great-grandmother, Phoebe Mary (Bashaw) Porter.



The journalling reads:

Phoebe was born in South Charlestown, New Hampshire on July 15, 1882, a daughter of Eli and Elizabeth (Burnell) Bashaw. She was the ninth of ten children born to the couple.

Her marriage to Frank Porter took place February 3, 1900 at Bellows Falls, Vermont. They had five children together: Eli, Evelyn, Robert, Harry and Annie.

The couple lived in South Charlestown, New Hampshire before moving to Townshend, Vermont in 1903. In 1920, they were in Bellows Falls, Vermont and in 1933 they moved to Halifax, Vermont. After Frank’s death in 1943, she lived in Brattleboro, Vermont until about 1958, when she moved to West Dummerston, Vermont.

Phoebe died May 11, 1963 at Brattleboro, Vermont. She was buried next to her husband in Locust Ridge Cemetery, Brattleboro, Vermont. Her daughter, Annie, and son, Harry, were also buried in the family plot.
