Craig, Thanks for posting your line for me. I still am 'outta luck' though. Your Fayette Co., is in the wrong state for my line. You got a good thing going here! Congratulations! I know we are all related if we get back far enough. do you know anything about the differences between the Akers of Europe Descent and the Acres of English descent. I know all Akers came from the Norway/Oslo area as Vikings originally, but there is a lot of time inbetween that needs to be filled in. My grandfather always said we were Holland-Dutch. How about you? Thanks , Diana
