Notes for: Elizabeth Wilson

I had her last name as McAnally, but hard evidence is lacking for that. She was supposedly the daughter of William and Elizabeth McAnally. I have also seen info that her last name might have something to do with an S. Dale Garrison.

About her last name, Ronny Bodine wrote this:

As to his wife, I would be hesitant in naming her Elizabeth McAnally, whom I find to be the daughter of William Roderick (1807-1889) and Elizabeth (Potts) (1813-1903) McAnally and whose daughter Elizabeth was born 7 April 1849 and died 29 May 1939 and in some convoluted away is credited with having married James S. Bodine, who was born before his father-in-law. In another case I find her parents to be William McAnally and wife Elizabeth. The facts are all twisted.

End of info from Ronny.

Elizabeth is buried near her husband in South Hickory Hill Christian Church Cemetery in McClellan Twp, Jefferson Co., IL.

NEW INFORMATION FROM RONNY BODINE (April 8, 2018):

His 1st wife, Elizabeth, is said to have been a McAnally, but evidence to support this has not been forthcoming and her supposed McAnally parentage has several contenders. But this theory seems to be supplanted by the Illinois Death Certificates of her son Andrew J. Bodine who died 27 April 1916 and daughter Euphany Caroline Bodine McCann who died 21 Jan 1928, and the Missouri Death Certificate of her daughter Elizabeth Bodine Osborn who died 3 March 1920, all of which state their parents were James Bodine and Elizabeth Wilson.
