Notes for: Thomas ("Tommie") Bodine

This son does not appear on documented records and is known only by family tradition. The tradition holds that three undocumented sons existed in the family: James, Samuel & Thomas. Due to the age spread between Elizabeth and OHP Sr, it is possible that several, as many as three or four, could have existed. Though John and Nancy married in 1810, it is also known that John was away in the Navy for almost three years and probably did not return to Georgia until the latter part of 1814, after his discharge from the Navy.

From Ronny Bodine:

Thomas 'Tommie' Bodine is one of the three sons that were, by tradition, born into the family but have left no record of their existence. He may have died before the family left for Texas.
