As you may be aware her birthplace is variously given on GR (and probably other sites as well) as,

1851 Phoobe PRESSER, Llanover, Mon, aged 38 (1813)

1861 Phoebe PROSSER, Blaenavon, Mon, aged 51 (1810)

1871 Phoebe PROSSER, Widow, Blaenavon, Mon, aged 62 (1809)

If you have access there are several trees on Ancestry which seem to include her. Unfortunately they have clearly copied their information from each other. The only one with a source is labelled NEWFTW~01. The source information says only,

Birth
ABT 1809 Blaenavon, Monmouthshire, Wales

Source Information
Title
Records of Parish Church of St. Peter, Blaenavon, Monmouthshire, Wales

Repository Information
No repository specified for this source.

The tree claims her father to be Joseph Marfwyld MARFELL and Mary (unknown). Other trees give her mother as Mary PARKER but quote no source. Personally I would not take this information as gospel.

They seem to have spent their life in Llanover where John was a shoemaker.
