Thanks, for letting me know about a Horace Decker -- first time I've even encountered a match with his name - even though I know he's not mine (who probably died 1993-1904). The Warneke name is common, however, I can seem to connect with that either. I doubt that Kathy was a relative. At least none that I'm aware of -- but then there's several branches of Warneke's I've not been able to account for - she could be from them -- who knows!

Niki....Will share of course!!! :O) Karla

Hello, Fellow Deckerites! New to the list, I offer my DECKER line: Staten Islanders all my Gmother SARAH HELEN (1891-1961) d/o NOAH SELLECK Jr (1871-1932) s/o NOAH SELLECK (1828-1917) s/o MATTHIAS Jr. and ANN HILLYER d/o JOHN HILLYER & ELSIE MERRELL MATTHIAS Jr's father was probably MATTHIAS Sr. The SI DECKERs were a tangled bunch! I look forward to finding the answers. Ever hopeful, Holly Tooker

Hi Donna and Karla, I too am from this Decker family. I come from Hermanus, then his daughter Rachel, I would love to share with you. Niki

Diane: I don't think I ever asked you, do you know whether Horace had any siblings? I have Caroline listed with two possible birthplaces. Someone gave it as Rochester NY and in an article about her son Calvin, it was given as NJ. Did I tell you that I found a lot of Deckers on the 1850 Manchester Twp. Ont. Co census and 6 Peters in a land deed indes for Ont. Co. ? You probably have seen these same things. Nancy Krohn, in Ann Arbor, has promised to "dive" into her Decker files for me. She is so busy, I know it may take awhile.

She was born 10/26/1802 in Rochester NY and died 9/22/1860 in MI. I have a friend in Ann Arbor who is trying to help me make a connection. Wish I could tell you more.
