Decker is a very old name in northern NJ. There was even a Deckertown. And a Deckertown Stage. Check with Passaic Cty Genealogical and Historical Society - they probably have the complete Decker genealogy. Not sure where you live but it would be worth going to see. ANd be very careful with Munsell's - there is a lot of wrong and omitted information in it. Munsell's information was provided to them and they published without verifying facts ANd then they made typing/printing goofs.
