Re: Edwin Carlos Ackerman - 8th generation

Hi Mary (Cousin?),

Thanks for your information.I received an email from a Diane Ward Sives who says we are descendants of a David Ackerman who came to America in 1662 from Holland.Here is her info.

According to Diane, we are in a Vol 2 on a history of David's descendants.Until now, the farthest back I've traced is Sanford Ackerman born in 1802 in New York.I, also, have some good information on Edwin Carlos, even a picture, and his descendants.

My direct line is:

Sanford Ackerman (1802-New York)
Edwin Carlos Ackerman (1846?-Iowa)
Carl McKinley Ackerman (1896?-Nebraska)
Bartley Elvis Ackerman (1921-Nebraska)
Bartley Carl Ackerman (1948-Brussels,Belgium)

Interestingly, the last 4 generations at least, starting with Edwin who served with the 2nd Iowa Infantry Volunteers, have served in the military during our country's wars.

You can write to me directly.I would be interested in knowing how we are related, and who else is out there.
