Notes for: Charles Henry Bodine

I am guessing that he is the son of Daniel and Elizabeth based on information on his tombstone. His birth date might be January 22, 1851, but most likely it is his death date. Seeing the tombstone would clear this question up.

When Daniel B. Bodine died, his obituary in the Daily State Gazette of Trenton, NJ stated that he left 3 surviving children. W. B. Bodine(my great grandfather), Joseph L. Bodine (well known physician and surgeon) and Anna F.

In that Bodine plot I found the graves of Daniel and his wife, his son Joseph L. and his wife, and those of Elizabeth S., Lizzie, Maggie and 2 others which were so old that I am not sure I could ever decipher them.

When I get the book I ordered which inventories the graves in Mercer Cemetery I will send you further information and when the weather is warmer I will go back down there and work at getting additional information from the gravestones.

From Ronny Bodine:

His death, at the age of 8 months, resulted from dysentery. See the death records for Monmouth County. He was supposedly buried in Mercer Cemetery in Trenton.
