Subject: Effect of Wars on the Phebus Family
Message:
I'm currently trying to tie in my families branch into the mainstream phebus genealogy Hank has pieced together. One theory I have is that the name "Phoebus" got changed to Phebus for some of us when England and France were at war. If some of the family dropped the "o" because they moved during that era and didn't want to be found, etc.... that would give another little window on how the family came over. England would have been an essential bridge in the migration.
If there is any further info on this, please email me or post a follow up message. I'm also researching the genealogy of my grandfather, Robert Anthony Phebus, who served in the 29th Infantry Division during WWII. Not much info is available about him prior to that time. Good luck everybody....
