Notes for: Elizabeth Bodine Owsley

In one place, MBP gives Elizabeth's middle name as "Bodine." This is the last branch with a definite Bodine name among its members. This is not to say, however, that those named below do not include children by Catherine Bodine. The evidence is simply not available to prove it.
