    1. [DECKER-L] Moses Decker Descendant's Census Update
    2. Denny Shirer
    3. Listers, This message is for any of you that descend from Moses Decker of Viroqua, Vernon County, Wisconsin, late of Muskingum County, Ohio, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania and Orange County, New York. I have just completed a year long census update of my Shirer Family database which includes the descendants of Moses Decker. The update found many missing members and included new additions previously not documented. In many cases the families were followed every year until the 1930 census. There are many that still refuse to be found and I do not have access yet to the 1900 census outside of Ohio so there is still much work to do but the bulk of the work is done. If you are part of this family and haven't found the census records yet, then here is your chance. You will have to go to an individuals record to see the census data. I can't think of any reason to include them as separate census pages as it is easier to find the person through the index than it is to search countless census pages. I do have the digital images of the census pages (only those included in the database. I do not have all the census pages and will not do lookups so please don't ask!) For those wanting a census image of someone in the database, let me know. This only is for descendants of Moses Decker as listed above and associated families. If the census year is not included in his/her record, I do not have it. The records can be found at the Shirer Family Genealogy Project at: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~mysong The site should be spidered in a few hours so by tomorrow all the new records should be indexed. You can either use the search tool or the surname index to find an individual.
