Hi Dave:
...
About the only other thing I can add is from the Parker-Willett bible, in which a notation was made that Nellie Eva Bodine, Lewis Paxon Bodine's first wife, died April 14, 1919, Sometime after that, Lewis married a "Tillie" or Matilda.
In answer to your earlier question, when I went back into the early census records on Ancestry.com, it shows Hannah Shadinger being born in PA.
Keep in touch !
Best wishes, Walt B

When I look up Hannah Shadinger, it comes up Shaddinger, born 1849, orig. from Plumstead, Bucks County.
Continued best wishes, Walt B

Hi Dave:
Many thanks for all of your correspondence. Altho I didn't renew my annual membership to Ancestry.com, I did manage to find the 1920 Census page which shows that Lewis P. Bodine's mother was born in Pennsylvania, his father born in New Jersey, and son Walter P (my dad) still living at home, while brother Alfred V. had moved on, probably already in Connecticut.
