Notes for: Fredrick ("Fred, Red") Noel Bodine
I found an obituary for a James F. Bodine and am just guessing that the information in it applied to this family. All I previously had, before seeing the obituary, was a birth date for Frederick Noel Bodine (9-16-1927). I could be very off on this guess.
From Ronny Bodine:
