Notes for: John Murray Bodine

At the time of the 1870 census, she was living in Daviess County, Kentucky with her two surviving children. It is not impossible that John Murray and his sister Mary Skinner, who married Leamons, were marrying into another Loudoun County family Note these marriages in Loudoun Co.: Mariah Bodine m. 31 Dec. 1836, Thomas Lemon, bondsman Joseph H. Bodine; Mary Jane Bodine m. 13 Apr. 1836, Jacob Lemon, bondsman Andrew M. Cridler. This publication also lists these Bodine marriages: Mary Bodine m. 5 Jan. 1793 (marriage reported 1 June 1801) James Cumings; Winifred Bodine, dau. of John, m. 28 Mar. 1836, James Gheen.

The following was extracted from the "Kentucky Genealogist," v. 5, 1963, pages. 123-129. It was then arranged by family (by Rudie Slaughter?). Information in parentheses was added by the people who submitted the article to the "Kentucky Genealogist" in order to make some things clearer.
