• Notes

  Arthur Libby was the grandson of Phineas and Clarinda (Beedy) Libby, who purchased the Benjamin Stanwood home and buildings in North Woodville, Maine. A photo of the home c 1900 with his aunt Clara (Libby) Hughes and grandmother in front appears in a book by E. Durwood Libby. According to Arthur's granddaughter, Elizabeth (Dunphy) Crosby, Arthur's grandfather Phineas Libby lived in the Benjamin Stanwood home, where his grandmother died when burned in a fire. Arthur and his wife, Cora (Kimball), lived in the home across the street, and then their daughter, Isabel (Libby) Dunphy resided there until her death in 2005. Elizabeth Crosby recalls the old Stanwood residence, and would occasionally get in trouble with her parents for crossing the street without permission.
