Hi Jackie and Wanda,
I am a descendant of Joseph(II)Decker and Elizabeth Wheat of Harrison Co, IN.Several of us have been trying to figure how Benjamin fits into the mix in that area as he isn't a child of Joseph and Elizabeth.We have a lost cousin that is also searching your line that I'll tell to get over here and join the fray.

Good Luck, Scott"Following is a compilation of Decker marriages in Harrison and Floyd Counties, IN. There maybe some clues there for you. Particularly in the "Joseph Decker m. Sarah Decker".
"Following is a compilation of Decker marriages in Harrison and Floyd Counties, IN. There maybe some clues there for you. Particularly in the "Joseph Decker m. Sarah Decker".While snooping around the "Indiana State Library Genealogy Division" Marriages to 1850 database for Harrison and Floyd counties, I stumbled on some Deckers that I don't know about and wonder if anyone might recognize any of these and see if there is a possible connection with my Deckers.I was able to account for 7 (5 for sure) of the 15 marriages in Harrison Co., and 1 of the 6 marriages in Floyd Co.
