Friday Bonus:
The USPS issued a set of 20 Civil War commemorative stamps in 1995. Four of the stamps commemorated battles, eight depicted people associated with the Union side, and eight depicted people associated with the Confederate side. There were two African-Americans (Frederick Douglass and Harriet Tubman), a Native American man (Gen. Stand Watie), and a Jewish woman (initials P.P.), who served as a nurse and administrator at Chimborazo Hospital in Richmond.

What was the full name (first and last name) of the person included in that set of stamps who had the initials P.P.?

The initials "P.P" are Phoebe Pember. I recognize the man but can't think of his name.

Edit - Phoebe Pember is the correct answer for the bonus question.

Welcome to the trivia game, Bryan_C. Hope you'll come back and play again.
