Notes for: Joel Augustus ("Gus") Bodine

CA told me that three of the children from Joel's first marriage are listed together in the 1910 Washington DC Census. They are in the household of Pascal Borden Breedan. Listed are Pascal's wife Madge Adeline (Bodine) Breedan, Ruth Eileen Breedan (daughter of Pascal), Joel Augustus Bodine (brother-in-law), Theodore Bodine (brother-in-law), and Laura E. Bodine (sister-in-law and wife of Theodore).

Here is some more info on this:

Hi Dave,

I always have notes- I aim for high standards but sometimes they are incomplete, illegible, or otherwise useless! This information should be accurate. I do not know any birth months for this group of people, so I have subtracted their age from 1910 for the estimated birth year.
1. Pascal Borden Breedan, age 30, born about 1880 in Tennessee; policeman.
2. Madge Adeline Breedan, age 26, born about 1884 in Virginia; musician.
3. Ruth Eileen Breedan, census image for age is not clear,- (census reports that Pascal and Madge have been married four years and that Madge had one child)-so estimating born between 1906-1910 in DC.
4. Joe Augustus Bodine, age 16, born about 1894 in Virginia; pressman/dressman??
5. Theodore Allen Bodine, age 24, born about 1886 in Virginia, can't read occupation
6. Laura E. Bodine, age 20, born about 1890 in Virginia; domestic.
