Notes for: John W. Bodine
From Ronny Bodine:
NOTE: There is no evidence pointing to the parents of John Bodine outside of his claim in the 1880 census that they were natives of New York. In looking closely at all the John Bodines born in New York between 1835 and 1840, there appears to be only one who fits and that is John Bodine, son of Peter I. Van Pelt Bodine and his wife Mary Burton Bodine, residents of Staten Island, New York in 1850 with a 10-year old son named John. Nothing is known of this family after 1850. Perhaps Peter died and Mary remarried. By 1860, John was around 20 and on his own. Proof may lie in the Maryland death certificate of John Bodine issued in 1889.
