Unusual for the day, Samuel and Phebe were divorced, and though they were living in Yates Co., NY, their separation agreement, dated 6 Jan 1831, appears in the deed book of E. Greenwich, RI. Phebe has not been found in 1840, but Samuel was living in E. Greenwich, RI that year, aged 50-59, with females aged 15-19 and 20-29, presumably two of his three daughters. In 1850 Phebe was living in Henrietta, Monroe Co., NY with her daughter Mariah Chappell and family, and her name on the census was "Phebe Mewsey", aged 50, b. RI. That same year, Samuel was living in Fairfax Co., Virginia with another daughter, Isabella Maynard and husband, his name being incorrectly given as Samuel A. Maynard, aged 65, farmer, b. RI. Neither Samuel nor Phebe has been found in the 1860 census. According to the Wightman genealogy, Phebe eventually remarried to a Walter Cannel. Children:
*Elizabeth, b. c. 1818, m. Edward Wheeler of Auburn, NY
*Maria, b. NY 1820, m. Mainard Chappell , b. NY 1815 a shoemaker. The couple lived with her mother in Henrietta, Monroe Co., NY in 1850.
*Isabella Ann, b. NY 1822, m. James G. Maynard of Providence, RI; Fairfax Co., VA; and Bureau Co., IL. In 1850 the couple was living in Fairfax Co., with her father in the household.
