Emma May Decker b. 28 Aug. 1882 d. 22 March1883.
Winnie Decker b. Jan.1887D. before 1926. George and Edith are the parents of the children.
Also there is Ronnie Jackson  Born Aug 11 1945 d. Oct.6 1945 and also my half brother Paul Seip Born and died in the 1940s. George and Edith are my Great Grandparents. There are  no markers they were just put in anyplace. Except John Wesley Decker Who has a homemade marker And Ronnie Jackson. Hopefully this will help some one else When they go to the Cemetery. My Mom was with me when I went Two weeks ago and pointed out were the people were buried.
