By the way in the 1910 census, when Newell Bodine is living with his wife and daughter in El Reno Ward 3, Canadian, Oklahoma; Roll: T624_1246; Page: 1A; Enumeration District: 87; Image: 180. Living with them is his mother, Betty. Also living there is his brother James L. Bodine and his wife Olive along with his daughter, Olive. Strange that he is not in the 1900 census with the family in Spencer County.

I asked about this daughter Olive, since I had their daughter's name as Gertrude. Maggie said they were the same person.

Yes, they are the same person and I am currently trying to get the tombstone information for James Leon Bodine and Mary Olive Bodine from the El Reno Cemetery in Oklahoma. Keep your fingers crossed.
