Born in Portsmouth, Rockingham County, N.H., February 23, 1821. Lawyer; served in the Confederate Army during the Civil War; delegate to Georgia state constitutional convention, 1868; U.S. District Attorney for Georgia, 1869-70; U.S. Attorney General, 1870-71. Died in Cartersville, Bartow County, Ga., December21, 1880. Interment somewhere in Cartersville, Ga. from ICH: note surname spelling... From history of Attorney General Amos T. Akerman (1870-1871) Amos Tappan Akerman was born in 1821 in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. He attended Phillips Exeter Academy, graduated from Dartmouth College in 1842, and worked as a teacher in North Carolina, Virginia, Illinois, and Georgia. He then studied the law and opened a firm in Georgia where he practiced until the outbreak of the Civil War in 1860. Though he opposed secession, Akerman joined the Confederate Army and saw action in several battles. He ultimately changed his views and began to oppose slavery. Akerman was a member to Georgia's 1868 state constitutional convention and began serving as U.S. district attorney for Georgia in 1869. One year later, President Ulysses S. Grant tapped Akerman to become his second attorney general, following the resignation of Ebenezer Rockwood Hoar. During Akerman's tenure, he dealt with the Credit Mobilier scandal, railroad magnates, and the Ku Klux Klan (KKK). It was his open and active opposition to the KKK that led advisors to pressure President Grant into asking for Akerman's resignation. Akerman, though angry, complied with Grant's request and resigned on 1872, never to hold public office again. Amos Tappan Akerman returned to Georgia, where he practiced law until his death in 1880. 1860 Federal census Elberton P.O., Elbert, GA 27 July Living with McKinsie Sorron family Amos T.

Mr. and Mrs. Walter Akerman have the sympathy of their many friends in the loss of their little boy, two years old. His illness was of very short duration, having been taken with spasms and died soon after. ******************** June 4, 1908 Page 1 In Memoriam. Affectionately Inscribed in Memory of Little Francis William Akerman. The hearts of loving parents and affectionate friends would have detained him here even in this dark cold world, but Jesus called him for his own. "Suffer the little ones to come unto me for of such is the Kingdom of God." Sorrowing parents be comforted, you will again see your darling in the Kingdom of God. "The Lord gave and He hath taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord." Francis had such bright, winsome ways, the sunshine in the home. He was taken suddenly ill, only lived a week and with all the skill of our best physicians and loving hands could not be saved, only two years of age, a bright and interesting child. But turning from our selfish grief, let us dry our tears and rejoice that he has exchanged earth's miseries for Heaven's glory, and his eyes behold the King in his beauty. Intelligent, winsome, sweet babe, it is hard to give thee up out of mother's arms, but we can only bow in humble submission to Him who doeth all things well. He is too wise to err, He makes no mistakes.

C. says: A pretty wedding of the week was that of Mr. Charles Akerman, of Macon, Ga., to Miss Sara J. Davis, one of the most attractive and popular young ladies of this community. Mrs. Akerman is a daughter of Mr. John C. Davis, a large planter and prominent citizen of this county. She is widely connected and is descended from men who made history in South Carolina both during the revolution and the civil war. The bride came in with her brother, Mr. Jack H. Davis, who gave her away. She wore a becoming traveling dress. The bride's sisters, Mrs. J. Q. Phillips and Miss Agatha Davis, were matron and maid of honor. Her niece, little Miss Emily Phillips, was flower girl, while her nephew, Master Wier Davis, acted as ringbearer. The ushers were Messrs. R. J. Copeland, Jr., R. C. Philson, James R. Davis and W. W. Davis, the two last being brothers of the bride. The choir of the Presbyterian church sang the wedding chorus from Tannhouser as the party entered and as they left the church. Mrs. Jones, of Laurens, sang "Oh Promise Me," during the ceremony, which was performed by Dr. W. P. Jacobs, the pastor. On the evening of the 19th a reception at which about one hundred people were present was given the bridal party at the home of Dr. and Mrs. J. Q. Phillips. Mr. and Mrs. Akerman left on the noon train for Atlanta and Macon, followed by many good wishes. source: The Cartersville News Cartersville, Georgia March 7, 1907, Page 1 Bartow County at GAGenWeb 1900 living with brother Alexander 1910 Federal census Macon, Bibb, GA 18 April Akerman, Charles head age 35 married 3 yrs born Ga lawyer legal Akerman, Sarah D. wife age 33 born GA 1920 Federal census Macon, Bibb, GA 8 Jan Akerman, Charles head age 45 born GA lawyer general practice Akerman, Sarah D. wife age 43 born SC Akerman, Elfrida niece age 12 born GA 1930 Federal census Macon, Bibb, GA Akerman, Charles head age 56 born GA lawyer law office Akerman, Sara D. wife age 54 born SC1.1.1.1.1.3.6.6 Alfred Akerman born 3 July 1876 Cartersville, GA married Adeline born 8 Sept 1874 Canesteo, NY1900 Federal census Athens, Clarke, GA 1 June Akerman, Alfred boarder born July 1876 age 23 salesman 1910 Federal census Athens, Clarke, GA 22 April Akerman, Alfred head age 33 m1 married 7 yrs born GA proffessor Univ of GA Akerman, Adeline wife age 35 mother of 4 living 4 born NY Akerman, Catherine dau age 6 born CT Akerman, Ruth dau age 5 born MA Akerman, Elfreda dau age 3 born GA Akerman, Robert B. son age 1 born GA 1920 Federal census New Haven, New Haven, CT 16 Jan Akerman, Alfred head age 43 born GA stock maiker WRA co Akerman, Adeline wife age 45 born NY clerk Library Akerman, Katharine dau age 16 born CT Akerman, Ruth dau age 14 born MA Akerman, Elfreda dau age 12 born GA Akerman, Robert son age 11 born GA Akerman, Nigel son age 9 born GA Akerman, Gifford son age 7 born GA 1939 lived Triplett, VA1.1.1.1.1.3.6.7 Clement Akerman born June 1879 GA1900 living with mother 1910 Federal census Cape Horn, Skamania, WA 23 April Akerman, Clementhead age 30 born GA farmer general farm Akerman, Mary M. wife age 36 m2 mother of 5 living 5 born OH 1920 Federal census Seattle, King, WA 3 Jan Akerman, Clement head age 40 born GAproffessor university Akerman, Mary M. wife age 45 born OH 1930 Federal census Cape Horn, Skamania, WA 3 April Akerman, Clement head age 50 born GA teacher Akerman, Mary M. wife age 55 born OH
