Hi Juanita, I do the Akin newsletter. It is called AKIN ANCESTORS. I have been very behind getting the issues out, due to personal/family problems. But now things are so much better and I have been working very hard to get these issues to everyone. I just sent another batch of newsletters out yesterday. The newsletter is done quarterly. March, Jun, Sep and Dec. At present I am working on completing the December 98 issue. Each issue for 98 ranges between 30-60 pages and is indexed. The yearly subscription is $17.00. If you decide to subscribe, please make check payable to: Angie Strzelecki, 524 E. Seminole Ave., McAlester, OK., 74501. My phone #, which is unlisted, is 918-429-1176. If you are not interested in subscribing, that is okay. I would love to correspond with you. What family do you descend from? I may have info in my files. Hope to hear from you again and thanks for writing.
