The Bodine Family Tree

This is the family tree belonging to a branch of the Bodine family that lived in or near Delaware Township, Hunterdon County, NJ. The reason I specify that is because there are many earlier branches of the family living in other parts of Hunterdon County that I am not familiar with.

As is my practice, I will include the children of female Bodines, but not their grandchildren. I will make an exception to that rule if I have written about the grandchildren in one of my articles.

Also, please feel free to make additions or corrections in the comments section below.

Thank you for the information on William Bodine’s parentage of it being Peter. Having a hard time finding resources for William Bodine/Catharine Groendyke, other than their marriage in 1808 at Hunterdon county. I am a direct descendant of their presumed son William, born 1810 in Hunterdon county.

I think your Bodine list is incomplete, as Jacob Bodine and his kin are missing [Catharine Fauss (1806 ‚Äì 1884) & Jacob Bodine (1806 ‚Äì 1867), listed on the Fauss family page]. I am descended from this couple: Jacob > John > William > Elsie > Laura Hammond >>. Many of my ancestors and relatives are buried in the Sand Brook or Moore family cemeteries. One thing that I’ve always thought was “interesting” is that some of these family members are buried in the German Baptist church cemetery in a region with a lot of German settlers, and yet the name “Bodine” is associated with French settlers in East New Jersey. Culturally and historically, this makes no sense because it’s unlikely the two communities would have interacted. But we know that it was fairly common for colonial German settlers to anglicize their names (Mohr > Moore, for example), and the way my family has always pronounced Bodine is more like the German “Bedein”. This may offer a clue as to why I can’t trace this branch of the family beyond Jacob’s father, John (b. 1775).

  Jeff, Gretchen Keith has called my attention to the missing Susan C. Bodine, wife of Israel Hoppock. And, as I have her in my tree, the daughter of Jacob Bodine and Catharine Fauss. I also have Jacob as the son of John, but do not know his mother’s name. And perhaps the grandson of Jacob Bodine of Alexandria twp. (c.1760-1801), who married Mary Pickel and died intestate, only 41 years old. I will try to merge this branch of Bodines into the tree in the near future.

  Jeff I believe you are related to the other Hunterdon county Bodines. On ancestry .com search for Samuel L. Bodine , who was my grandfather and buried in Flemington, NJ
