Akers, Andrew R.

Abt 1851

 

 

d/o Luke & Nancy (Howell) Akers.

Neither Andrew or Missouri are children of Luke & Nancy but because they saw this as “d/o” I’m thinking this must be the grave of Missouri Duncan Akers, 1851-1925, d/o Thomas & Eunice (Reed) Duncan. [Duncan_Sarah_Thomas]

If it is Andrew R. Akers burial site: Andrew R. Akers, 1846-1922, s/o Greenberry Sr & 1st wife Mary “Polly” (Reed) Akers. [Akers_GreenberrySr_2wives]

I should also note have both of them buried in the Smith-Reed Cemetery, Alum Ridge, Floyd Co., VA.

DC states burial Smith Graveyard. Her DC states burial Reed graveyard. Src for their parents: marriage & death records with census records collaborating.
