Hi, glad to have you back!
I've decided to start putting what I have found for Genealogy on my page.
Webpage to my family and
friends.

My Mother Gwendolyn Elizabeth Davies

When
I first started this webpage it was for my genealogy,
but
with lack of experience I got confused and wasn't sure
what
I was doing, I am going to try to add a bit, hopefully it will
help
me get farther in my search.
My
surnames are Decker, Smith, Van Gorden, Wood, Coon
This
is just a small portion of the surnames.
I
have tried for two years to find info on my grandfather Mathew Decker,
With
some great help, Thanks John , I find his father Elisha was born in NJ
Wife Charlotte Hamilton as my grandfather was found on a census listed as a Daughter.
In
1900 he was in Neversink, Sullivan County, listed with my grandmother
Matilda
(Tally) Smith, One of my Uncles born in 1896, and my Aunt Lizzie,
whom because of the writing, looks like Suzzie, born in August of
1899.
I
have found my Uncle Elisha married to Elizabeth M. Van Gorden,
(this was his first wife as I know he was married more that once, on the
Delaware Co. Marriage records along with my Aunt Lizzie who married Elwin
Wood, and my grandmother Matilda Smith Decker when she married a man named
Jerry A. Coons in 1923 after Mathew died.
On
Matilda and Jerry Coons marriage certificate it list as Jerrys parents
the
names David Coon, father, and Barbara Decker as mother.

and Matildas Children are
Earnest
Decker, b. 1896
Elisha
Decker, b. 1897
Elizabeth
(Lizzie) Decker b. 1899
Lillian
