Notes for: John M. Bodine

From Ronny Bodine:

John Bodine was living 1850-1860 in Manhattan, King's County where he was engaged as a merchant and in 1870 in Manhattan where he worked as a fire insurance agent. Ads in the Brooklyn Daily Eagle first mention John Bodine as a Director of the Brooklyn Fire Insurance Company on 9 Aug 1856.

Obituary, the Brooklyn Daily Eagle of 29 April 1873.
BODINE--On Tuesday morning, JOHN M. BODINE, in the 54th year of his age. Relatives and friends of the family are respectfully invited to attend the funeral from his late residence, No. 546 Greene av, near Marcy av, Brooklyn, on Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock, without further invitation.

End of info.

I gather from this that her maiden name must by Townley. I did not have it before the info from the obit.
