Karen, I have a bunch of Asa's. None so far born in that year; however, I found a John b. 3-17,1791, w. Diana(Ann)Riley. However, I show that they married in 1821, Oct 11. John's parents were Luke Decker and Sara Kuykendall. John had a brother Asa, b. 1797.
I have an Isaac, Luke and Moses Deckers that were part of the first settlers in Lawrence County, IL, prior to 1783. Moses also had a son John that I show died in IL.
Here are the Asa's that I have: Asa b1797. Asa b.1857, Decker, IN. His father was Alfred Decker, m. Sally Miller.
All of these Deckers repeatedly named their children, Moses, Luke, Isaac, John, Abner, Asa, etc., which makes them difficult to follow. They also moved around alot. Moses is the only one that I show that died in IL, and he was in Randolph County. Hope this info helps.
