Notes for: William Bodine
From Ronny Bodine:
No record of this marriage has been found. Eliza's family name is known from the 1922 death record of her daughter Elizabeth Heady. Is it coincidental that William's mother was also named Eliza Stone or was the informant for the 1922 death certificate confused as to who was who?
