Can those of you with Deckard information tell me if the Harrison H. Deckard whose obituary is below was first married to Ruth E. Darst (or if she was somehow the widow Bertie)? I believe he was born in Vinton, Gallia County, and enlisted in the army in Columbus on 03 May 1917. --- Columbus Evening Dispatch Columbus, Ohio, Sat., Jan. 31, 1959, page 2A, OHS roll 6860 DECKARD Harrison H.
