Hi, Lethia, I was reviewing our messages and want to tell you that I found on line in the l860 Census, Grayson Co. Ky,a listing of Rebecca Deckard, age 32, and her children: Eli 15, Sarah A l0, Mary E 7, Martha J.4,Rebecca A. (age l- my husband's great-grandmother).I believe your Lethia was born after this census in l862.Maybe her husband was gone to the Civil War as no husband was listed with her. But the interesting thing was a W.D. Deckard, age 32, on the next page, and he was born in Tenn it said.Eli, the boy age l5, was born in Tenn and the rest of the children born in Ky. So could this W.D. be her husband-surely he was some kin. He was on page l6l, and she on pg. l62 of the Census. Still working on our kinfolks, Helen
