DECKER. Are there any researchers on the net for the Oil Creek Twp. area? Do you know of anyone that would have information on Shepard KNAPP and siblings? Wanting to know if Mary Ann KNAPP is a sister to him and who there parents might have been they appear as neightbors in the 1880 census Mary Ann DECKER and Vincent DECKER listed, Shepard and Clarisa KNAPP right above them and farther up the page is another Shepard F. KNAPP which I figure is Shepard's son possible? When I got to the court house to reseach Vincent DECKER owning property I found nothing, but I did find a Mary Ann ELDERKIN purchased land from James B. KERR, 26 June 1865. This property bordered up to a David M. KNAPP (which I thought might be her father). This narrows a marriage date down to the years 1865 to 1867 when Vincent DECKER was paying personal and real taxes there in Oil Creek Twp., Crawford co., Pa. Also have them on the 1870 census together with his youngest daughter Elizabeth, from his first marriage. I also found sale of property from David M. KNAPP and Margaret KNAPP(wife) to Timothy KNAPP 13 Oct 1848 which I thought might be another sibling to Shepard KNAPP. Plus other purchased of property by the KNAPP's. Thank you for any help that you can add. Mary Lou Cheney Geneva, Oh lew@ncweb.com --------------69F81C9F1102--
