From Ronny Bodine:

On 12 Sept 1918, Henning Russell Boden registered for the World War 1 draft in Missoula County, Montana. He reported he was born 2 Aug 1883, worked as a railway clerk and that Margarit Boden was his next of kin. From June 1908 to April 1915 he was head of the superintendent's office of the Northern Pacific Railway Company at Glendive and in April 1915 transferred to the same capacity of the office at Missoula. In June 1916 he was admitted to the Montana Bar. In 1920-1930, Henning lived in Missoula, Missoula County working as a clerk in a railway office in 1920 and engaged as a lawyer in 1930. They had four children. One died in infancy. He was buried in Whittier, California.
