Thanks, Sherry (hahaha it's early here 5:30 am and I almost put Catherine instead of Sherry)
Well, what you have would certainly fit that's for sure. I would be descendant of Samuel Bonham/Mary Ann Sowers (And as far as I have seen it is Sowers... her father is Daniel Sowers and her mother is Catherine...)
Daniel, John C., and Amos Ackley belong to Samuel Bonham/Mary Ann Sowers. This Samuel I have born in 1781 in Frederick County, Virginia. In the Elmer B. Hazie Book, my great great grandmother's brother, also a Samuel, wrote that his grandfather (Samuel Bonham) was born in England. This could very well be because his father was a "London Merchant." The "London Merchant" Samuel Bonham in the Hazie book appears to have married "A French Lady" named Ruth Boyer (I have also seen this Bower)... (Goodness knows not everyone could spell correctly back then).
Daniel and Ann C. Eaty married sometime in 1827 in Frederick County, Virginia. They had 13 children all together, two dying either as infants or young children. One of their children was John Ackley. He was born 17 March. 1826 in Virginia and died in Sherman, Texas Grayson County 1 March 1860 of Typhoid Fever.
Thanks for the input, WAY DISTANT cousin :D
