Audrey, Where were your Deckers living at the time that the NA became part of the family? The Northeastern Woodlands Indians of our research area, at the time of contact until the mid-1500's, were of two primary language groups: Iroquoian and Algonkian. If you know the extended family group (they used to be called "tribes," I may be able to give you some direction. As an aside... I have an association and undefined relationship with the Deckers of Durell, Asylum Twp, Bradford Co, PA. I also have Mohawk (Iroquoian) in my ancestry (Ots-Tosh (aka Alstock, Olstock) Hartell, dau of Jacques Hartell whose wife was Mohawk). She married Jacques Cornelius VanSlyck of Canajoharie, Montgomery Co, NY. During the 70's and 80's I was a Regional Conservation Archaeologist attached to the staff of the Carnegie Museum of Natural History. My specialty was the Northeast Woodlands American Indian.
