Notes:
"William Akers II is the son mentioned in the will of William I, where he was prohibited from inheriting land until he had legitimate offspring. He was married to Anne and was dead by 1751"(1).
Birth date constructed based on the fact William witnessed the will of John Bougham on 2 Jan 1697 and of Alexander Durham on 8 Jan 1697. Minimum age for witnesses at that time was fourteen years. (1)
William Akers III signed an affiavit in 1751 in Cumberland Co. VA stating that his grandfather, William I, and his father, William II, were deceased. Therefore William Akers, II died before 1751. (1)

VA Deed book 10, page 216-217. Ann's name from Dower rights relinquished and recorded 10 April 1706 in conjunction with sale of 98 acres on Piscataway Swamp to James Bougham, Jr. This also proves that the marriage occurred before April 10, 1706 and they had at least one legitimate heir as William Akers, II was not able to claim his inherited land until he had one as stated in his father's will.
