Notes for: Lucy J. Bodine

From Ronny Bodine:

Anoka County Marriage Records: On 11 Dec 1876 at St. Francis, Abram W. Saxton, of Hennepin County, was married to Miss Lucy J. Bodine, of Anoka County, in the presence of Martin Bodine and S. C. Smith, by J. B. Shaff, M.G.

From Minnesota Death Records:
Lucy J. Saxton, age 45, a native of Michigan, daughter of John and Sarrah Bodine of New York, died 13 June 1897 in Minneapolis, Hennepin County and was buried at Lakewood.
Abraham Saxton, 78, son of Am and Fannie (Dodd) Saxton, husband of Lucy Saxton, died 17 Oct 1922 in Minneapolis, Hennepin County.

The age of Lucy Bodine in 1860 was 5 (=1855), in 1875 was 20 (=1855) and in 1880 was 24 (=1856). At her death in 1897 her age was 45 (=1852), clearly at odds with earlier years.
