    3. Ruth: We were a little confused at first, too, but I believe it was Phoebe's brother's baby, Henry and his wife Harriet Harrington. I also think there was another baby that might have died, and this one could be a neighbor's baby. While I was transcribing Phoebe's diary, I had to stop once in a while, so I could figure out who Phoebe was talking about and what relationship they had with her. Phoebe's handwriting was hard to decipher, she got kind of sloppy at times. Phoebe also mentioned several funerals and that she had to make the shroud, and she also had to help lay the body out, that would be something I don't think I could do! Kim
