"Since there is only one Howe family shown in the 1790 Pennsylvania state census, her father probably was the Mr. Howe who purchased the mill from James Abbott. Family tradition states that Phebe was one of those captured by the Indians during a battle, but because of her beauty, she was not killed and she was later ransomed."---"Mary Luella Abbott Leavitt 1865-1955" by Bruce McIntire, page 19.
