Message Board Post:
My great-grandfather's parents or grandparents were Thomas and Mildred Nicholson
Akers.
My mother was Stella Adell Cravens, her mother was Stella Idell Akers, daughter of Larkin
Neanian Akers and Ida Louetta King. Larkin's father was George W. Akers from Putnam
County, Indiana. He was married to Margaret Matilda Steele.
George's father was Thomas Akers.
I would have to dig out my Akers work to see what the lineage was prior to that, but if
this is your family, then we are cousins.
