This house in which she was born no longer stands, but on the site at the northwest corner of Hartford Road and Bristol Drive, has been built the home of Howard A. Bristol. The Canton Sesquicentennial Booklet, supplies the following: "Phebe Humphrey was born in 1763 in the house that was situated on the old Albany Turnpike, near Suffrage Village Phebe was thirteen when the Declaration of Independence was signed. Her parents were Samuel and Prudence Mills Humphreys-- On the day when Phebe was sixteen years old, it happened that Phebe was alone. Her mother had left bread for Phebe to bake in the old Dutch oven with a warning to look out for the bread and herself" as it had been reported that British soldiers had been seen in another part of the town the night before. Phebe was watching her bread when she was surprised by two soldiers, one demanding some bread. She refused. As she parleyed with the soldiers, she saw the long iron poker in the fireplace. She snatched the hot poker and swinging it in the air bade them ' be gone'. the soldiers did not stop long for bread but vanished along the highway. Phebe won honor for herself and family..."
