| When they were married in 1895 James was a travelling salesman and they were living in Cambridge, Mass. A wedding announcement in the 7 Dec 1895 issue of the Cambridge Chronicle (p.8) reads: "A happy wedding occurred on Wednesday evening at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Moss Aaron, 102 Moore street, when their daughter, Miss Phebe Lee Aaron, was united in marriage to Mr. James N. Clay, of this city. Mr. W.E. Fleet, M.D., and his wife were the groomsman and bridesmaid. The marriage ceremony was performed by the Rev. Isaiah W. Sneath in the presence of a large company. The Acme Musical trio furnished music for the occasion. A large number of presents were received. The bridal couple left for New York and other points. On their return they will reside at 102 Moore street.
When their son Harry was born on Christmas Day in 1897 they were living on 102 Moore Street in Cambridge. James was still a salesman at the time. When the 1900 census was taken in June 1900 the family was living with Phoebe's parents Moss and Martha Aaron at 235 Harvard Street in Cambridge. James was a traveling machinery salesman at the time. When daughter Esse was born the following year they were still there and James was still a salesman. They were members of the Harvard Street Methodist Church in Cambridge.
They were still at the Harvard Street address in Apr 1910 when the census taker came. James was a travelling salesman and Phoebe's mother Martha and adopted sister Phoebe Hamblen were living with them. The 1910-1913 Cambridge city directories still have them at that address but the 1914 directory shows James N. Clay, salesman, at 57 Essex Street. But there is also an entry for Mrs. James Clay who lived at 56 (not 57) Essex Street. It also stated "at 770 Mass Ave" before listing the Essex Street address but the Cambridge directories around those years don't list anything at that address. It might have been a work address in Boston. The following year only Mrs. Phoebe Clay is listed, at 57 Essex Street. James is not there. But an article in the 18 May 1915 Boston Globe, p.3, explains what happened:
ARRESTED IN KANSAS CITY. Man Believed to Be James N. Clay Wanted in Cambridge for Desertion and Nonsupport. After eluding the police of several cities for a year, a man, believed to be James N. Clay of Cambridge, wanted for desertion and nonsupport, is under arrest in Kansas City. When arrested last week he denied he was the man wanted, maintaining that he is James Green.
Dist Atty Corcoran detailed State Detective Silas Smith on the case, and he is on his way West. No word of his arrival has been received, but it is planned, in the event of a question of identity, to send another official who knows Clay to Kansas City.
Clay left his wife two years ago. A letter, left by him in his home on Essex st, Cambridge, led to his wife confronting him with infidelity. Before doing this she made note of the same and the address. Clay left unceremoniously and up to February nothing was heard from him.
After waiting for months, Mrs. Clay’s brother went to Albany and by the aid of a photograph established to his own satisfaction that Clay was living with the daughter of a prominent family of Amsterdam. He was informed that they had been married several years.
The District Attorney’s office sent Capt. Herbert Gordon and detective Smith to Albany in February. Clay had disappeared and no trace was found of the woman. Through a fine bit of police work, the shipment of furniture was traced to Kansas City, and the police of that city have been on the hunt ever since.
Mrs. Clay, who was seen last night at her home, 57 Essex St., had not been informed of the arrest. Since her husband deserted her she has been obliged to go to work, and her oldest child, a lad of 17, has been forced to give up school. There is a daughter, a few years younger.
Clay is 40 years old and at one time was prominent in fraternal organizations.
James continued to live in Amsterdam and Binghamton, N.Y. with two later wives and died in 1929. Phoebe filed for divorce and custody of their two children in the summer of 1917 according to a list of divorce notices printed in the 4 Aug 1917 edition of the Cambridge Chronicle, p.3. James was said to have been of Chicago at that time. Given that he was married to another woman by this time it was more than likely granted, although in later records dating after his death she is called the widow of James Clay. Phoebe continued to live at 57 Essex Street through the 1918 Cambridge city directories but is not listed in the 1919 or 1920 directories of Cambridge. She apparently moved to 70 Austin Street in Cambridge next as her son Harry's World War I draft card dated 10 Sep 1918 shows them living at that address. When her daughter Esse married John Pigman in Jun 1920 their marriage record stated that they both were living at 70 Austin Street, but searching that specific address in the 1920 census doesn't show them there, so perhaps they were missed. Likely not long after that she moved in with her daughter Esse Pigman and her family at 42 Guild Street in Medford, Mass. Membership records of their Harvard Street Methodist Church have the 57 Essex Street address crossed out with the new Guild Street address written in. .
The Pigman family moved from Massachusetts and back to John's home state of Ohio in 1924, living in Athens until about 1927. Phoebe likely moved with them. They then moved back to Massachusetts where the 1928 Dedham, Mass. city directory records her as living at the rear of 394 High Street, the address for her daughter Esse Pigman. In the 1930 census they were all living at 90 Needham Street in Dedham. She was listed as a widow. In July 1935 they moved to Pontiac, Michigan where that city's 1937 directory has Phoebe Clay, widow of James N., living in the rear of 95 1/2 Putnam Avenue, which was the address of the Pigman famly. The 1942 Pontiac directory has her at the rear of 298 Oakland Avenue, still as widow of James, and still living with the Pigmans. She was still living with them in Pontiac when she died in 1945. |
