I will check your names further. I do know of an Adonijah (or something like that) Decker who married a Martinje (sp) Jacobus, one of my Jacobus line who migrated to the area you mention. He, at least, then went on to MI, I think, for a while and then returned to IN. Tina died fairly early I think; they had a fair number of children, and the father came back to the Dearborn Co. area (those environs) and lived with a daughter for awhile. One of his wife's brothers who lived over in Knox Co., IL, I believe, witnessed his application for pension for service in the War of 1812 I believe. I think he may have come from Orange Co., NY, near the NJ state line. I have a contact in this line of descendants whose information I will look up and pass on to you. Sharon
