Do you happen to have any information on Charles and Jane (Dickson/Dixon) Decker who are buried in Tioga Point Cemetery in Athens?Charles was born abt 1822 in Wyoming County and died in Sayre in 1899.He was the son of Isaac and Esther.His daughters Martha, wife of Albert Graham, and Maggie, wife of Rudolph Fleschutt, are buried in the same plot. He also had daughters Blanche and Ella or Ellen.Ella died young, and Blanche evidently died before 1905, when her mother's obit says she was survived by two sons and two daughters.Charles had three sons, Jothan or Jotham, who died after 1930, and Marvin and Andy, but I don't know which of the latter was alive in 1905 or whether either had descendants.
I'm trying to connect Charles to Isaac Decker who lived in the same area of Wyoming Co. as Charles.Isaac was b. abt 1821-24 and had children Esther, Charles, Jane, Martha, and Andy.The repetition of six names between these two men's families makes me hopeful that Charles and Isaac were brothers.
Any help you could offer would be most welcome.
