Dave,
Regarding freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~bodinef3253.htm
I am Virginia Berdine, wife of Julius Andrew Berdine who is the son of the Julius (note, not Julis) and Bessie Kathryn (note, not Kathyn) Troutman.
The main additions and revisions needed in this section, besides the above spellings are:
Bessie's father was John H.Troutman of Jefferson County, PA. The only source I've found is the 1920 Federal census for Sykesville Borough, Jefferson Co. listing John H. Troutman, a son, Clarence 12, and daughters Bessie 9, and Helen 8. John's wife, Alice McInich died 1914 or 1915.
Julius B. and Bessie's children are:
- Judith Mae Berdine Nece
- Julius Andrew Berdine
- Thomas Alan Berdine
All three are living.
The Virginia you have listed as a child is actually myself, Julius Andrew's wife. We would very much appreciate if you would make these revisions. I have been able to find much valuable information on our Berdines on your website and applaud your venture. It's great and thank you!
Sincerely,
Virginia Buck Berdine
