DECKER/WOODS I am currently researching the following families: William DECKER, b 1810, KY and wife Sarah "Sally" SKAGGS DECKER, b 1811, KY Children: 1. Rebecca, b 1833 KY, married 1853, Richland, MO, to George SHAW 2. Ezekiel, b 1835, KY 3. Henry, b 1838, KY, married ca 1858-59 to Elizabeth Jane WOODS, (had dau Rebecca Jane, b 1859, Huntsman’s Hollow, Phelps Co., MO, m. Alfred Runnells BROOKSHIRE) 4. Hetta/Hetty, b 1839, KY, married 1859, Phelps Co., MO to James RUE 5. Polly, b 1840, MO 6. Sally, b 1841, MO 7. William, b 1843, MO 8. Margaret, b 1845, MO 9. Lucretta, b 1849, MO I have found William DECKER & family in the 1840 and 1850 Pulaski Co MO census, but have not been able to locate him after 1850. I have located William’s son, Henry, in the 1860 Phelps Co., MO Census, #268-268 with his wife, Elizabeth Jane, 16, b TN, daughter Rebecca, 1, b MO. Also living in this household are Carroll WOODS, 23, b TN and Sarah Woods, 18, b TN. Also, something interesting to think about is that in Phelps Co MO Marriages there is an Elizabeth DECKER marrying Francis MURRAY 13 Nov. 1870 and I am going to keep that bit of information in the back of my head . . . just in case my Henry Decker died and Elizabeth Jane Woods Decker remarried. I have not been able to locate Henry DECKER or Carroll WOODS in any census after 1860. The 1870 MO Census index has two Henry Deckers listed - both in Pulaksi Co and same household. I think it is the father and son from the David Decker line. I am most interested in hearing from anyone with information regarding this DECKER family OR possible WOODS/WOOD family.
