Notes for: Mary Ann Bodine

I think this family is in the 1880 Census of Delanco, Burlington Co., NJ. Mary A. Deacon is 55 and born in NJ. Both her parents were born in NJ, as well. Samuel L. Deacon, her husband, is 58 and born in NJ (his parents, too). They have three daughters at home.

From Ronny Bodine:

The marriage of Samuel C. Deacon and Mary A. Bodine was reported in the Burlington "Gazette" of 26 Dec 1845. The Deacon family lived all of their lives in Burlington County; in Evesham Township in 1850 when Samuel worked as a bricklayer; 1860 in Delanco where he was a mason; 1870 in Beverly Township where he was a mason and 1880 in Beverly Township where he worked as a builder. See her obituary in the "New Jersey Mirror" of 11 March 1896.

Children: William (1848), Edwin (c1852), Permelia (c1854), Samuel C. (c1856), Louisa B. (1857), Sarah M. (1860), Mary (c1872).
