Is anyone researching Nathaniel B(rown) Akers of Patrick County. I believe he is the son of a Hudson Akers of Franklin County? If anyone is interested I can give them his offspring.

Bill Crews >> Bill, I have an indirect line that might connect to your Nathaniel AKERS. I have a Nathaniel AKERS, married to Sarah (???), who fathered at least three daughters: Amanda AKERS, b. ca. 1849 in Patrick Co., VA [married Robert LILLY]; Mary Drucilla AKERS, b. Feb 1854 in Patrick Co., VA [married Joseph E. LILLY], and a Catherine AKERS, b. abt 1862, [married (1)MOONEY, (2)MEADOR, (3)GADD]. The LILLY and MEADOR names are my distant connections to these people, but I would love to know more about them. Could this be the same Nathaniel AKERS? Sincerely, Lainie Hendrix

I'm searching for info on a Joseph Willis to married Sarah/Sally Nowlin in PatCo in the 1790's. (There was another Joseph Willis who lived in that area but was married to a Peggy Walker---I have no known connection with them....but who knows?) Sally is the daughter of James and Ursula Nowlin. I do not have any info on their ancestors or from where they originated. Sarah and Joseph Willis' first five generations are listed below. They lived in the area close to Pat/Floyd/Carroll so their descendants keep showing up in all three counties. Please let me know if anyone is familiar with this crowd. Thanks!!

Ran across this checking some records and thought maybe someone could use the info: Abstracts of Wills, etc Patrick Co 1791-1820 by Lela C Adams p 53 dated 9 Nov 1793 Inquistion taken at the plantation of Shadrach Going before Edward Tatum a commissioner. The body of Nathan Going then and there lying dead. One Robert Hall on Saturday 21 September last on the plantation of Jacob Lawson mortally wounded the said Going on the head with a weeding hoe and broken the skull of Going, through rage and passion of Robert Hall. Jurors: Jonathan Hanby, foreman, Obadiah Hudson, Isaac Pennington, Aaron Rea, Marbert Smith, Warham Easley, William Easley, Thomas Collings, William Collings, Anthony Colling, John Wilson and Richard Davidson. These are all pretty familiar Patrick Co names. Ellie Burch Sebastopol, CA
