It seems strange that the Petrus b. in 1742 would marry, if there was a Petrus b. in 1747. However the birthdate of daughter Sarah in 1763 is too early for Petrus b. 1747. Bergen Families (Decker File), has 8 children (Hanna, Benjamin, and Huldah are not listed) for Thomas, no marriages for the children.^1,2 Name variation: Peter Decker.³
