Hi Dave...
My father James David Bodine still lives in the same house and farms the same land as my great grandfather Harvey Isaac Bodine did. Me and my brother lived there our whole lives. The house has tons of Bodine history that i would love to tell you about. We have lots of old pictures in my great-grandfather time, some people we still haven't been able to figure out. As soon as I can get the pictures together I will try to send them to you. Maybe you could help us figure out who these people are. My great-aunt Ann Christine Hill (everyone calls her Chrissie) would love to know about these people. I will keep in contact with you. I hope this information clears some things up. I hope to hear from you soon.
Brooke
