I'm at first inclined to say "join the crowd", but maybe I shouldn't. I think I may have found a break in my Davenport wall tonight! I, too, have a Decker who I have never been able to trace. Caroline is the wife of my Cornelius Davenport. She was born 10/16/ either 1803 or 1808 (the number was unclear). According to a son, Calvin, she was born in NJ. Other than: she died 8/04/1873 and is buried in Washtenaw Co. MI, I don't have any more on her. I wish I could be of more help. Mary Lou > > > >
