Have we ever had any indication of what Bonnie's original middle initial was? I have not seen anything in my records of one, and I wonder if Bonnie's full name was "Bonnie Marjorie Boyd," which would explain why she was "Marjorie Boyd" in the 1900 census and "Bonnie Boyd" in the 1910 census.
I think that on most marriage registrations, the full name of the partners is written. If Bonnie's marriage certificate is found it should have her full name at birth. sammieswife.

sammieswife....I tried that route. I could only get a marriage license notice and not a copy of the marriage license itself.

Okay, you've got me thinking now.
I have just found Bonnie living at another address on the 1930 census ! The first was obviously Beth Sarim where she was listed as a servant.
Still digging.

Thanks Lady Lee for the bump of this thread because I hadn't read this. I did see the post of Rutherford's Death Certificate and saw that a Bonnie signed it and gave the information. Didn't know who she was. Dang! His secretary.......
Seems like there are/were A LOT OF SKELETONS in the Watchtower's history closet.

AAARGH !!!
I have just gone round in circles and made the same discovery as Leolaia above ! Excelent table of comparative ages Leolaia !
I can't believe how many different dates of birth Bonnie has ! She travelled with Rutherford on many voyages, so she is certainly the same Bonnie.
Does anyone know when / where she died ?

THE SOCIAL SECURITY DEATHS INDEX MIGHT HAVE IT.

This is the copy of Bonnie's parents names from the 1910 census. Can anyone make any sense of them ?
Leolaia, the following info from the 1900 does seem to fit (as you said above). Especially as the place of birth is Waterloo Iowa - which tallies with the passenger list that gives you the 17th July 1876 date of birth.
