OBITUARY

Mrs. Phebe Breyman

The ranks of the pioneers, as well as many civic and patriotic organizations of Oregon, lost a conspicuous member in the death of Mrs. Phebe Breyman, widow of A. H. Breyman, on August 19, at her late residence, 555 Montgomery drive. Mrs. Breyman was born in Woodstock, O., in 1846, and was brought to Oregon by her parents in 1852. As a girl, Phebe Cranston attended school in Portland and later married A. H. Breyman in Salem. Mr. and Mrs. Breyman lived for several years in eastern Oregon, later coming to Portland and at the time of her death Mrs. Breyman had lived here continuously for 40 years. Mrs. Breyman was one of the organizers of the Portland Woman's club. She was also one of the earliest members of the Multnomah chapter of Daughters of the American Revolution. For several years she sang in the choir of the old Trinity Episcopal church and was a life-long member of that denomination. Her ancestors, the Cranstons, came from a long line of patriots and pioneers. She is survived by two daughters, Mrs. Bertha Ash and Floy Breyman, and two sons, Otto Breyman and Arthur Cranston Breyman.
