Deckert
| My great great
grandfather, Henry Deckert, immigrated to the U.S. from Germany. He
settled in New York.
Henry's son William married in New York, and moved to New Jersey to raise a family. My grandfather, Arthur Deckert, was born in Jersey City in 1900. As a young man, he moved to New York, where he married my grandmother, and settled down to raise a family in Brooklyn. My mom was the oldest of 2 daughters. She and her sister were born in Brooklyn. Mom graduated from high school circa 1942. |
