Notes for: Serbella ("Belle") M. Bodine
The "Whig Press" of Middletown, New York has this entry on October 11, 1865: Bodine, Amasa H. - Serebella, child d. 25 Sept 2 y Town or Montgomery. However, there is a Serbella M. Bodine in the 1880 Census. She was born about 1865 since she was 15 in 1880. It looks like the first Serbella was born about 1863 and died in 1865. I guess another girl was born around 1865 who was then named after the first Serbella.
