Why do you associate history as a string of dates?
It is important to associate history with a string of dates because it tells about the systematically events occured in the past.
Did Phoebe Fraunces save Washingtons life?
Probably not. Samuel Fraunces never had a daughter named Phoebe, and his eldest daughter, Elizabeth, was a 10-year-old in June 1776, the time of the supposed poisoning attempt. The first reference to a "Phoebe" Fraunces comes in a magazine story published in January 1876, a century after the supposed incident. And that story provided no documentation or source for the tale.
When did phoebe fraunces die?
Samuel Fraunces's eldest daughter, Elizabeth, was born December 26, 1765. There is a theory that her nickname was "Phoebe", but no evidence to support this. Elizabeth would have been a 10-year-old at the time of the supposed June 1776 assassination plot against George Washington. If a "Phoebe" existed, she may have been a woman enslaved or employed by Samuel Fraunces, rather than his daughter.
