[or-roots] Decker - Harrington - McAdams - Eyler

[Leslie Chapman]

So I spend all week in Pennsylvania and New York and chatting on the
Beardsley list about my non family Deckers and trying to sort them out from
the Kin and all the allied families. I guess in a way I can say I have them
straightened out pretty good now; surprise! surprise! Wwhat that means is I
now have them so tangled up that my family net is no longer a net, but more
of a birds nest three siblings marry three siblings and one of thems dau
marries another ones uncle or some such and all the Allied families plus
three or four more I didn't know about are pretty well mixed up in the whole
lot and I finally get down to some final details like where did Julia Decker
and her husband "Dennis William Harrington" end up and after much travail
online and at Joyce Tice's wonderful web site I go back to HQ and I just
spent a day and a half searching for an answer I had in my hands all along
and you are wondering why I am talking about this  on here?

269. 228 Julia [9] Decker was married in 1882 to Dennis William Harrington,
born in Cuba, New York, September 16, 1854. Dennis died in Portland, Oregon,
August 12, 1939. Julia was recently living in Portland, Oregon with her son.
The children of Julia and Dennis were:
Mary Maud ma George E. Richards and Lewis Williams ma Lesta McAdams.

Maud and George apparently didn't make it to Oregon, but Lewis and family
seem to have; so if anyone on the list has a connection to them or their
Eyler in-laws or the parents I would be glad to bury you in information.
