Notes for: Sarah ("Sally") Ann Bodine
From Ronny Bodine (Dec. 10, 2018):
From the Christian Intelligencer of the Reformed Dutch Church of 8 Nov 1855.
At Owasco, September 26th, Ult., by the Rev. W. Ingalls, Aaron Brokaw to Sarah Bodine, both of Niles.
Aaron and Sally Brokaw are recorded in the censes of Niles, Cayuga County in 1860, 1865, 1870 and 1875. Aaron Brokaw also appears in the 1905, 1910 and 1915 censuses.
1880 Niles, Cayuga Co., NY: Aaron BROKAW 47 NY farmer, Sally Ann 47 NY wife, Adell 18 NY dau, Mary Jane SELOVER 50 NY sister-in-law.
From Our Brokaw-Bragaw Heritage, by Elsie E. Foster, 1968?
p. 127-128. Aaron Brokaw married Sally Ann Bodine on 20 Sept 1855 in Owasco. Aaron Brokaw was born 2 April 1833. Sally was born 10 April 1833 at Owasco. She died 2 Sept 1885 [sic] and Aaron brokaw died 27 Sept 1918.
Note: The foregoing date of 2 Sept 1885 is in error as Sarah Brokaw was living 14 Nov 1885 to host the funeral from her home for her sister Mary Jane Selover. Thus 1887, as on her grave marker, appears to be the correct year.
From New York Death Records:
Aaron Brokaw died 27 Sept 1918 in Moravia.
Burials in West Niles Rural Cemetery, Cayuga County, New York.
