Michael, Thank you for your kind offer. I am interested in any Ackerman or Ackermann who came to either Canada or the USA. The following Ackermans are ones I recognize as being descendants of David Ackerman who came to New Amsterdam in 1662 from The Dutch Republic. Some of his descendants emigrated to Canada 9th generation descendant Sheldon Ackerman (David Sheldon) m Clara Johanna Gipman 10th generation descendant David Sheldon Ackerman (their son) b 28 Feb 1927, 8 Mar 1963 m. Dorothy Maude Brown I am interested in any information you have concerning these families I cannot immediately identify any of the other Ackermans in your previous message, however I am interested in tracing any Ackermans living in the US or Canada.
