At one time I tried to find a Thomas Akers born in Maine in about 1770, without success. Family stories say that he may have been born in Belfast, Ireland. My idea had been that he might have been born in Belfast, Maine, since his wife, Martha Mitchell, was from Maine. They both died in Louisiana -- Thomas in 1815, and Martha in 1819. Is Thomas a name that appears in your Maine Akers line at all? -- Mark James <tmark@geocities.com>
