Phebe E.Betts Holcombe,b.1853, dau of Charles Betts &Rachel Smith,of Bucks Co,PA
I have an original carte de visite photograph of “Phebe E. Betts Holcombe”, which I’d like to get back to descendants or family members. Photo was taken in Lambertville, NJ, and she looks to be about age 16.
I found Phebe E. Betts in 1860 & 1870 censuses for Bucks Co., PA with her parents Charles Betts (b.abt 1803) and Rachel Smith Betts (b.abt 1816). Ancestry OneWorldTree shows Phebe Ellen Betts was born 17 Sep 1853 PA and died 1 Jul 1939 in Jefferson Co., NY.Per OWT, she married Charles Holcombe (Sr.) and Charles apparently died about 1778. By 1880, she was Phebe Holcomb, a widow with three children: ages 6 (Ruben), 4 (Rachel) and 2 (Charles) - and her widowed mother lived with her, in Bucks Co.
