Dave, I have info to share on the Vigo County, IN BODINEs, St. Mary's Village area in particular. I am not related to the BODINEs, but my Aunt Alice is. She married Paul Robert RICKETTS, whose mother was Rose Mary "Mayme" BODINE. Some of my info comes from St. Mary's Village Parish records and cemetery stones as well as from BODINE family members. I will be glad to mail info if you will give me an address.
