Notes for: John Bodine

I found a John Bodine in FamilySearch's Ancestral File who was born about 1861, possibly in Lambertville, New Jersey, who married an Adeline Lake. They had a daughter, Mary Elizabeth Bodine, who was born September 1887 and died September 1932, both in Lambertville, New Jersey.

I later found a John Bodine buried in the Washington Cemetery in Warren Co., NJ who I am assuming is this John. I had this John as born about 1853, probably in Warren County. This seems like a match with the John Bodine who is buried in the Washington Cemetery. I will assume that they are the same person, but that is not for sure. The cemetery transcription says John's wife was Alice Martenis.
