From Ronny Bodine (Oct. 17, 2022):

From Marshall County, Alabama Marriage Records:
Gordon Bodine, born 9 June 1911 in Marshall County, son of James & Eunice (Howell) Bodine AND Mrs. Ruby Latham, born 8 June 1911 were married 16 July 1945 in Arab.

Gordon Bodine was buried in Rocky Mount Cemetery, Arab, Marshall County. Their marriage record records her name as Mrs. Ruby Latham and his birthdate as 9 June 1911, which conflicts with the date of 9 June 1908 recorded with the Social Security Administration. Ruby (Miller) Bodine was the daughter of Elie Frank and Victoria (Collins) Miller. Although the Social Security Administration has recorded her date of birth as 8 June 1911, her son James says it is 6 June 1911.

1950 Marshall Co., AL: Gordon BODINE 40 AL farmer, Ruby 38 AL wife, Carolyn 12 AL dau, James 1 AL son.
