Well, I'm back in the saddle (so to speak) after experiencing some
technical problems with my computer and business that just plain took me
away for a while. So I will continue with the Deckard genealogy consisting
of obits from the Deckard genealogy book prepared by Laura Mae Harding.

Picking up where I left off, I will continue to provide obits for the
children, and their spouses, of King Anthony (Mone) Deckard and his two wives.

Corailla Deckard is the daughter of Mone and his second wife, Mary J.
There has been some discussion as to her surname--Eads, Cazee, or
Stillions. The obit is undated but the tombstone picture indicates the
year of death as 1950.
