F Doris Marie RHINEHART (4.1)

Birth: 16 Dec 1903 Indiana; Death record says born 17 Jun 1903, obit shows date of 20 Aug 1904. Even using the younger age, she was born prior to her parents Feb 1904 marriage, so it is unlikely that the obit was falsified to save face. I have been unable to find a birth record for either age, and it is unlikely that this mystery of her age will ever be solved.

Death: 20 Aug 1904 Lapel, Madison Co., Indiana; Death certificate Madison County Indiana book H20 page 13 - summary: died 20 Aug 1904 in Lapel Indiana of cholera infanture of 5 days duration. Doctor = T.J.Stephenson Age 1 yr 2 mths 3 days. Parents both born Indiana. Buried (looks like Hair or Hain) Cemetery J.C.McCarty undertaker.

M Kenneth Doyle RHINEHART (Uncle, 4.6)

Birth: 07 Oct 1913 Upland, Grant Co., Indiana.

Marriage: 22 May 1942 Dorothy Orene GARTH (4.6w) (1914-1980); Probably, Los Angeles Co., California.

Death: 28 Nov 1977 Thurston Co., Washington.

Story: __ ___ ____ Ken and Dorothy had no children, but had two beloved dogs that were part of the family. Buffy was a mixed breed with tan fur and was born 8 May 1948 in Claremont, Los Angeles, CA. He died 10 May 1960 in Olympia, Thurston, WA. Cricket was a Chinese Pug with fawn fur and black face. He was born 18 Apr 1960 in Olympia, Thurston, WA and died 3 May 1974 also in Olympia. These dogs were loved as much as any children since Dorothy couldn't have any children due to her diabetes, and they are put into this narrative for that reason.

F Mildred Bonita RHINEHART (4.7)

Birth: 14 Feb 1916 Upland, Grant Co., Indiana.

Marriage: 03 Mar 1935 John Taylor BODOLAY (2812, 4.7ha) (1915-1988); Akron, Summit Co., Ohio.

Divorce: 11 May 1956 Los Angeles Co., California; I'm not sure when they split, but I think it was in the mid to late 40's. In any case, on 14 Jun 1949 in Las Vegas John married someone named Cyrilla (I didn't look up marriage so don't know last name). Cyrilla subsequently got an annulment 14 Dec 1950 (file D408760 Los Angeles Co) because he was still legally married to Mildred. Cyrilla and John had two children. James David Bodolay was born 29 Jul 1948 and Mary Loretta Bodolay was born 19 Feb 1950. Mildred divorced him on 31 Aug 1954 (file D474212 Los Angeles Co) and at that divorce there was a note that a Mrs Sue Bodolay was found and that she had been married to John but hadn't seen or heard from him in 4 years. She gave name of a cousin Joseph O Bodolay who resided on Glendon in West Los Angeles and was employed by Greyhound. This information may come in useful for researchers on the Bodolay line.

Marriage: 20 Nov 1964 Arch MCWHERTER (2813, 4.8hb) (1909-1982); Probably, Los Angeles Co., California.

Note: __ ___ ____ I have a lengthy narrative written by her, called 'Memories of a Transplanted Hoosier'. (Evd 86).
