Hi! I'm still trying to track down the Indiana Akers!!! With the help of aunts and "cousins" this is basically all the info I've been able to track down! I have some of the "in between" stuff - wives, husbands and kids, but I wanted to keep the size of this post down (somewhat...). Any and all help is appreciated!!!

I am looking for a Winton Thomas Aker or Akers. Wife's name was Elizabeth. I was told the wife's name was Elizabeth McMillan Aker(s). In the 1900 census Winton was addressed as Thomas Winton. On my g. fathers SS application it was listed as Winton Thomas Akers. He was born Oct. 1852 and lived in Wythe Co., Va... The children were listed as Harlow, William, Lula, Margaret, Lillie and Bessie. I believe there were two other children named James and a Kyle. Does any one have any information on this family?

Jane Akers, d/o Benjamin Akers and Catherine Malone of KY married Jesse Purcell of IN and PA Aug. 8, 1810. This family moved to Iowa in the 1850s. Does anyone connect with these fine people? W.L. Barker

Ann, I have information on Akers that moved from VA to MO. I will have to send it to you later. Just letting you know in case I forget to send it to you, you can remind me. On my way back to work. Esther

I received the following from Doug Pinkerton: Craig, My earliest known Pinkerton ancestor was Henry of Hopewell Twsp. NJ. He was there in 1755, and died in 1788. Married Keziah, 5 children. My ancestor was John Pinkerton, Henry's only son. John married Rachel Lequear 1st., 6 children. Married 2nd Azuba Akers, 2 children both girls. My ancestor was David his oldest son who married Rebecca Rockefeller, 10 children. My ancestor was Henry Rockefeller Pinkerton who married Juliana White, they had 11 children. My ancestor was John Wesley who 1st married Rachel Jane Kerr, 3 children. Married second Lorrvina Emmons, 4 children. My ancestor was produced by the second marriage. Frank Emmons Pinkerton was my grandfather. He married Ada Vanselous, 5 children. My dad was Doyle Allan Pinkerton who married Catherine Emery, 4 children. If you need any data on the children of any of these marriages please "E" mail me at hdougpinkerton@gateway.net P.S.

Old court records show a David Pinkerton lending money to one of my known ancestors. HDougPinkerton@gateway.net Azubah Akers was Jesse Akers sister.

Ann, What was the name of your grandmother. I am researching an AKERS line that left VA and settled in MO. Many of these also settled in OK as well. I remember visiting some AKERS in Ada, OK as a child but I don't remember who they were, just that the family was an uncle and aunt of my father, or perhaps grandfather. I do know that a great uncle, William Walter Dolen Akers, served as a medic or physician in the War with Spain. He later lived in Tyrone, OK and owned either a pharmacy or doctor's office, W.D. Akers and Son. In my searching I came upon an article entitled "My Father the Investigator", by Audrey Bess Akers, in a publication called Dusty Trails. This woman's grandfather was a James A. Akers, b. 1835 in Franklin Co., VA who married Martha Ann Helen Owens, b. 1846 in Russell Co., VA. They married in Sullivan Co., TN and lived for a time in Washington Co., VA. James A. was a physician and moved his family to MO in 1885. A son, Arthur Cline AKERS, b. 1869 in VA married Lucy Alice Bell May 27, 1893. Their son, Luther Virgil Akers, known as Virgil, became a federal agent during the depression. The family lived in various places but one was El Reno, OK. Hope this rings some bells out there.

It would be so helpful to those on the list if you would give some indication as to who your Akers are. Names, dates and location will assist us in knowing if we have a connection. Also, it is helpful if all communication is directed to the list. That is the reason for it. One never knows when a small clue will break down the wall. Thanks Suzanne My brick wall is: Is the father of John Burl Akers b 29 Sep 1845 in VA really John Bunker Akers and who is his mother? Selina or ???

Hi All, Have a question to throw out for any comments. It seems that most AKERS researchers are working on either NJ or Virginia. Is there anyone working on an AKERS family in Ohio around 1850 time period that would relate back to France? Looking for a William John AKERS married to a Jane Hall. Elise A.

Which side are you researching, Kathleen? Are you following the New Jersey Line or the Virginia Line? It seems to have split as two brothers went in different directions. I am particularly interested in the New Jersey Line myself. If you have any information that enlightens that side, let me know. Hi Earl, I just got back from New Jersey and didn't get a thing done on my research! Ghastly! But did talk with some Akers there and can't say they are any different than the rest of us.
