- Hello!
- I. I'm looking for descendants of Capt. Thomas A. Akin and his nephew
- Samuel J. Akin who lived in Atchison Co., MO, and Boulder Co., CO,
- between 1845 and 1885. Capt. Thomas A. Akin, born in MD, married
- Margaret S. Ross. Samuel J. Akin b. 1835, in Bloomington, Ogle Co.,
- IL, married Mary Ann Burns who was born in Muscatine, IA in 1836.
-
- Mary Ann Burns' parents were Christopher Burns and Rachel ?Pierce?,
- from PA, who were in Wayne Co., OH in 1830, and in Logan Co., OH in
- 1835. Mary Ann Burns had five brothers: John, ?James?, Adam, Silas,
- and Simon Pierce. Simon Pierce Burns served in the Texas State
- Legislature in the late 1800's.
-
- After the death of Christopher Burns, his widow Rachel married James
- Amen from VA and the family was in Holt Co., MO in 1850. Rachel
- Burns Amen was with her daughter Mary Ann Burns Akin in Boulder Co.,
- CO, from 1865-1885. Samuel and Mary Ann Akin went to OR before 1890.

- II. Searching for any other Amen, Amon, Amin, Born, Borns, Burns
