Notes for: Ellen Frances Bodine

She died giving birth to their second child. There is an Ellen Bodine buried in the Lindsley Cemetery who was born in 1866 and died in 1945. If it is not this Ellen, then I wonder who it is.

From Ronny Bodine:

Ellen Smith died giving birth to their second child. Robert Smith married three more times after the death of his first wife.

Burials in Lindsley Cemetery, Cheshire Township, Allegan County, Michigan.
