He lived in Emporium, Cameron, Pennsylvania, United States in 1940. He died in July 1981, in Williamsport, Lycoming, Pennsylvania, United States, at the age of 71, and was buried in Selinsgrove, Snyder, Pennsylvania, United States. More Marion Bodmer was born on June 19, 1910, to Mary and George “Gus” Bodmer. In 1910 Gus was a thirty-six-year-old baker and liquor wholesaler; he held one of three wholesale liquor licenses in Snyder County at a time when community voices against alcohol sales were becoming louder. He came from the Harrisburg area, where he had worked as a baker before moving to Selinsgrove. In 1910, Mary Kantner was thirty-three. She was the daughter of a tombstone cutter, Victor Kantner. His Selinsgrove Marble Works was the premier stone works in town in the late 1870s and early 1880s. He died in the 1880s, leaving Mary’s mother to raise her and her three younger siblings. Gus and Mary married in 1900 in Selinsgrove. It’s not clear how they met, although the arrival of the young Harrisburg baker in the small town certainly would have been known by the town’s twenty-somethings. They had a boy, Eugene, in 1904 and had Marion six years later. Marion’s birth certificate. The form reveals two things: (1) the amended sex listing for Marion and (2) the name of the attending doctor. the beginning of the deception.Someone, possibly the doctor on the scene or an assistant, filled in the “Sex of Child” field with “Female.” That entry was then crossed out with a single stroke, and “Male” was written above the deletion at a slight angle. It’s most likely that the entry was changed AFTER the revelations of 1929, when Gus and Mary claimed that the doctor was initially unsure of Marion’s sex but decided on “female.” Dr. Cyril Haas there is a lot more on the internet and its worth a search and reading further auto read translation of reverse gives ( with errors !)
