Notes for: Eric Bodine

From Ronny Bodine:

On 12 Sept 1918, Erick Bodine registered for the World War 1 draft in Henry County, Illinois. He reported he was born 6 July 1874 in Sweden, was a machine operator for the Walworth Manufacturing Company and that Hilda Bodine was his next of kin. Although his name was spelled Erick Bodine on the form, he signed as Eric Bodine. In Jan 1920, Erick Bodine lived in Kewanee, Henry County. He reported he had immigrated in 1908, was divorced and worked as a factory laborer. Hilda Bodine lived elsewhere in Kewanee, though she reported still being married. She was employed to do housework in a private home. Nether Eric nor Hilda have been located after Jan 1920.
