Notes for: Alvin 'Eugene' Bodine
When he brought his bride home, Miss Mary Esther Bodine was at the party held at his house. I believe this must be the Eugene Bodine who is buried in the Owasco Rural Cemetery. He died May 17, 1933 at age 74. I will assume so for now.
It looks like he may have been living in the household of George Brinkerhoff in 1880 working as a farm laborer (Eugene, age 21, NY, NY, NY).
From Ronny Bodine:
In June 1900, Eugene and Cora Bodine lived in Niles, Cayuga County with their children Ida 13, Myra 11 and Irving 10. Eugene reported that in 14 years of marriage his wife had borne 3 children all of whom were living with them.
