  • Notes 
    • Lillian believed that James, a.k.a. Bodie was about 7 years old when Belle Stanley married John B. Stanley which was in 1908, so his birthdate was about 1901-2. However, today we know that he was born 04 April 1897 in Meigs County. Bodie was illegitimate. His mother, Mary Isabelle Coke had an affair with a Mr. Powell. Mr. Powell wanted to marry Belle, but her mother wouldn't stand for it. Initially in official documents Bodie was known as James Marvin Coke, later he adopted his mother's own adopted name of Hood. When he married Ida Mae Potter he used the name James M. Hood and stayed with that name to the day he died.
