Notes for: William Gregory Bodine

From Ronny Bodine:

From New York City Marriage Records:
William G. Bodine AND Alma R. Slater were married 23 Nov 1921 in the Bronx, Bronx County.

It was probably she who can be identified with Alma Slater, age 7, daughter of Henry D. & Sarah Slater, in the 1905 census of Bronx, New York and in 1910 as Alma, age 12, in the Bronx. So, born 1897-1898. This matches with the birth of an Alma Slater on 4 Oct 1897 in Manhattan, New York and further matches a Alma R. Bodine, born 4 Oct 1897 for whom a Social Security Life Claim was filed 20 Sept 1965.

1925 (June) Bronx, Bronx Co., NY: William G. BODINE 22, Alma R. 25 wife, William D. 2 son.
