At the age of 18 she was united in marriage to William E. Decker of Owosso. For a number of years they resided in that place. Then they moved to Saginaw county, where they were residents of Chesaning and vicinity about 18 years, later moving to Lansing. Mrs. Decker was a very patient sufferer for over two years.
