I want to thank everyone for their responses regarding my quest for Henry Akin in Connecticut. Angie (of the Akin Ancestors Newsletter fame) has been a great help with some possible leads. I'm sorry to say that I can't help anyone else, yet, on a possible connection to other parts of the country. To my knowledge, all of Henry's children remained in the Northeast, specifically Connecticut, Massachusetts and New York, although I only specifically followed my direct ancestor so I can't be certain. If I find out anything more, I will post that information to this mailing list. I do know that one of my older cousins retired and moved to Florida, but to my knowledge his children remain here.
