Omer was married twice, the first marriage to
a woman named (Lily) Maude Duncan,
marriage license #:7737 in the Mercer County
Courthouse.
I have no information as to what happened to
Maude. He next married Jewel and had
children with her.
Growing up my mother knew both woman and
liked both of them. She knew that she was
related to Omer, but cared so little about
family relationships that she never even asked
how her Marion Poland family was related to
him. I doubt if she was ever taken out to the
New Boston cemetery to see her Great-grand
parent's, John Jacob and Betsy Rousch Deeds's
headstone — even when she was at her Great-
grandmother Williams's burial. It was too
common knowledge, relatives were a dime a
dozen in Mercer county and it was too difficult
to keep it all straight!
Had she not requested that her Aunt Nora
Poland Mitchell write down the family history,
which she did in wonderful detail, all of the
information which we now have would have
been lost. It could not have been traced in one
person's lifetime.
Findagrave is a blessing to us all and we can
be most grateful to this site for making it
available to us to link our families.
The interesting point here is that the Deeds
family were quite fascinating and deserve to
be researched.
