Subject: help on George & Bessie

Hi Dave, haven't emailed you in quite some time. I need some help and hoping that you can help me.

Mike's grandfather, George Henry Bodine, born 2/1/1887 in Hardin County Ohio married Bessie May Laws. She was born in Lawrenceburg Indiana in August 1896. She died in Hardin County Ohio on 2/13/1937.

The thing I am looking for is when they married. I cannot find a date anywhere on that. I do not know where they married. I believe they married in Ohio but it's only a hunch. Bessie lived in Indiana but was NOT listed in the 1920 census. But she did have a daughter, Elba Snyder, that was 16 at the time that lived with her parents, Marion & Sarah Laws.

...

Thanks Dave!

Mike n Deb
