Subject: Photos of Cornelius F. Bodine and Dorothy Ferguson
Hello: I am going through old photos recovered from Barbara Bodine Werner's estate. Barbara Bodine is the 4th child of the above mentioned people. There are photos of Cornelius F. Bodine as a child, young man, and many as an adult, many of Dorothy Ferguson as a child, young woman, her years at Dana Hall finishing school, as a mother and in her later years. There are also many very old photos/portraits of people on the Bodine or Ferguson side that have no identification, hopeful that they can be of some use to the Bodine/Ferguson ancestry.
Are you interested in these photos? How would you use them?
Please advise,
Jerry Werner: Relation: Barbara Bodine Werner's husband } Kenneth Werner } Kenneth's older brother, David W. Werner } Son of David W. Werner: Terrence Werner } I'm the wife of Terrence Werner.
Thank you. I look forward to hearing from you.

He had received the Good Conduct Medal, Meritorious Unit Award, American Service Medal, and four Bronze Stars Victory Medals. Ken had a long and rewarding career at General Electric, working in the Space Program. Ken had a lifelong interest in aircraft, sailboats, and camping. He was a lifetime member of The Experimental Aircraft Association, and enjoyed the Friday night meetings and weekend flyins. In his younger years, Ken designed and built rowing and sailing vessels, one of which is still being sailed today. Ken enjoyed camping with his family, which occupied much of his retirement. Kenneth was the devoted father of two daughters, Carolyn and Susan, whom both passed away in their late 30s. He is survived by his two nephews, David and Terry and their families. Kenneth's charming smile and witty sense of humor will be missed by many. His memorial service will be held at a later date and interment will be held privately.Dunn-Givnish Funeral Home, Langhorne.
