& Christine Alcie Illge,
Husband of Christina Louisa Felsman,
Michael came to America in 1854 on the ship, The Philadelphia...He was listed as a "Wool Dresser",
He is in the 1860 Adams Co IL census, with his parents
by 1863 he is in Adams Co IL. source, Civil War Draft Reg Card
1870 & 1880 Honey Creek Township, Adams Co IL census
moved to MO circa 1881 first lived in Stone Co for a short while, then bought 2 farms in Lawrence County, one in Chesapeake and one in Marionville.
living with son Charles Henry in the 1900 Lawrence Co MO census
as: Mitchell Ackermann, says he is widowed...
Shortly before Michael's death there was some tension in the marriage, Some say Louisa drank alcohol, and Michael dissaproved. Whatever their differences were, it ended with Louisa being buried in Maple Park instead of the Ackerman family Plots at IOOF...
The History of Lawrence Co MO lists Michael as a Teacher and Farmer.
No one is the family has a clue what he was a teacher of...(possibly German, or Sheep farming)
Michael and Louisa had 7 sons and 3 daughter's
out of his 7 sons, 5 of them had no sons, out of those 2 who did, only 1 had sons that had sons, Charles Henry. He had 2 sons, only 1 had sons Arthur Franklin, Arthur had 6 sons, only one had sons that had sons Fred Max. My point is out of 12 men only 1 has carried on the family name of Ackerman. Fred Max had 5 sons and they are doing a fine job of carrying on the name.
Michael Ackerman registered for Civil War Service July 1 1863
