Petitioner wanted letters of administration on the estate to be granted.

Does anyone know who this guy and his family are descended from???? Thank you in advance. Janet Bornhoeft

Sometime after his mother's death, Richard seems to have been 'adopted' (whether officially or not we don't know) by William T Blain, probably a relative of Richard's mother. Wm T Blain moved from Ky to Ks and Richard later came to Ks and then to Ok. The bits and pieces of information I have on Richard are full of questions and missing bits. I am interested in Richard's descendants and also in his Blain ancestors, especially. Any help would be appreciated. Mary Shackelton gshackelton@yahoo.com

Surnames: Decker, Duvall, Hoggard, Hinton Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/hgR.2ACIB/865.1111.1.1.1 Message Board Post: To Mary who sent me an email again- I received your email message you sent me on 6/7/04. I have tried numerous times to send a reply but to no avail. In answer to your question, the reason I believe that Phillip Arthur Decker is the son of Elisha Decker is because on Phillip's death certificate, his parents are listed as Elisha Decker and Margaret Duvall. Phillip married Nancy Hoggard in 1848 so he was not living with his parents in the 1850 census. He, Nancy, and their two small children were in IA in the 1850 census. I don't have very much information about Elisha Decker and Margaret Duvall. Do you have any information about them you would like to share? Thanks much, Frank Decker at lordecker@msn.com
