Hello, Dave: Do you have any information on Harriet Bodine ( various spellings) supposedly the daughter of John W. Bodine and Ann Dickerson. Harriet was perhaps born in Walden and married there as well to Philip Hale Hapeman on July 16, 1842. I would appreciate any confirmations of these names an dates that you might have. I have MANY descendants for Harriet if we can establish her to your family.
All good wishes, Vivian D. Boulos, Newport Beach, CA.

Subject: Harriet C Bodine and William Crist
Hello,
My name is Tammy and I am currently doing research on William Crist who you recorded correctly as being born around 1821. He was born in Montogmery, Orange, NY and died between 1871 and 1880. He was a grocer for a store located on 38 Water Street in Newburgh, NY. Harriet and William resided at 97 Smith Street in Newburgh, New York. There is an advertisement for his store on page 1 of the Newburgh Directory from 1865. I am currently trying to find more information about William and some pictures of Harriet Bodine and her children. If you have any information please let me know. Thank you
Tammy

Obituary, The Newburgh (NY) Register of Monday, 20 Jan 1902
William Crist, one of Newburgh's most respected citizens, died at his home on Montgomery street yesterday, aged 82 years. He has been in poor health for some time, and his demise was not unexpected. Mrs. Crist passed away a few years since. Of four children born to the couple, John Crist is the sole survivor. His three daughters---Mrs. Charles D. Monger, Mrs. George Chandler and Mrs. John Fitchie---having died. Mr. Crist was one of Newburgh's oldest business men. For years he has carried on the fish business, and his establishment on Front street had become known to residents of all parts of the city. For a few years past the business has been carried on almost wholly by his son John, although until the infirmities of age prevented Mr. Crist was a daily visitor to the market. He was respected by all who knew him, and in his death the city looses one who was in every respect honorable and upright. The funeral will be held on Tuesday afternoon from the Fitst Baptist Church. The interment will be in St. George's cemetery.
