Notes for: Henry Cornelius Bodine, Sr.

Henry C. Bodine was still living in Loudoun County, Virginia in 1910. I did have a birth date of August 1879 for this Henry C. Bodine. Bettina Allred sent me tombstone information for a Henry C. Bodine buried in the Leesburg Union Cemetery. His birth date was August 1, 1878. In the same cemetery were John F. and Gracie M. Bodine. I'm guessing that these Henry's are the same person.

From Ronny Bodine:

Henry Bodine was buried in Union Cemetery, Leesburg, Loudoun County. Emma Bodine was buried in Ashburn Presbyterian Cemetery, Leesburg. Henry Bodine lived all of his life in Loudoun County as a farmer. In 1920, he was recorded under the name Henry C. Burdine and in 1930 he was now widowed.
