From Chronicles of Oklahoma:
Phoebe Anderson, another daughter of Captain John Anderson, and a sister of Wesley Anderson and Sally, lived for many years at old Spring Station (two miles east of Tuskahoma).

She seems to have been a person of importance in the community, not only for her personal character and neighborliness but also for her executive ability. She was owner of considerable property which included a number of negro slaves.

Her first husband was William J. Bohannon, Jr. Their son, Sam Bohannon, married Margaret Woods, who were the parents of Amanda Bohannon, the wife of Mr. Peter J. Hudson.

Phoebe Anderson's second husband was Nicholas Hampton. They were the parents of two sons, namely, Julius and Ben. Ben Hampton was one of the commissioners who signed the Atoka Agreement in behalf of the Choctaw Nation in 1897.
Phoebe Anderson died at old Spring Station and was buried at the Dry Creek cemetery.
==============
Her grandfather was Daniel Anderson, a white man from Virginia who settled among the Choctaws in Mississippi early in the 19th century. He married into a Six Town Choctaw family by the name of Battiest, who were mixed blood (Choctaw-French). He came to Indian Territory at the time of the main migration in 1832 on the "Trail of Tears." He located near the current town of Tuskahoma. When he died, he was buried on the "Dry Creek," near Spring Station. His Choctaw wife lived to be over 100 years old.

Phoebe's father John Anderson and family came on the Trail of Tears to near Tuskahoma in 1832 with the first group. The captain of the group was 22-year-old William J. Bohanan, her future husband. Phoebe's mother was Mary Bohanan, daughter of William Bohanan Sr.
