Subject: Correction for father of Joseph Westbrook in Bodine genealogy

Dear Dave,

With further research on the Westbrook branch of our Bodine Family Tree, I found:

that our Joseph P. Westbrook, born abt 1872 in Clairborne, Union Co., OH and died in Michigan. He was married to Bertha E. Bodine on May 28, 1894 in Union Co., Ohio, daughter of Amos Bodine and Lydia Kipp.

His brother, Sidney W. Westbrook was born between 1857 and 1859. He died Nov. 18, 1937 in Central Lake, MI.

Sidney Westbrook and brother Joseph Westbrook were the sons of David Westbrook who was born in 1835 in Ohio. He married Lura (Luly) Westbrook who was born in 1835 in Ohio.

David Westbrook can be found in the 1880 U.S. Federal Census in Claiborne, Union Co., Ohio on page 197A. David Westbrook enlisted as a Private on May 2, 1864 at age of 29. He enlisted in Co. I, 135th Infantry Regiment Ohio May 9, 1864. Mustered out on Sept. 1, 1864 in Camp Chase, Ohio.

Sorry for the wrong information.

Bernice (Dunahue) Bodine
wife of Carlos L. Bodine
