Census Summary (personal notes) for 1930:

Elon Octavia (BURCHETT) AKERS was listed as a Widow in 1930 Census Enumeration. Her husband, Albert Lee AKERS, died 13 January 1930.

The children listed in this enumeration that I need to note due to errors made by the enumerator or errors in the information given to the enumerator at the time of enumeration (nicknames, errors in spelling, etc.) are the following:

Warmon AKERS listed as her son was actually Norman AKERS (born 22 March 1903, m. 21 February 1923 to Flossie MARSHALL). The Grandchildren listed in this census enumeration are the children of Norman AKERS and Flossie MARSHALL. (Assumption made due to fact that Norman AKERS was the only son in this household which was listed as married in the Marital Status column. The only other son's known to have been born to the same parents were listed as Single in this Household).

Eddie B. AKERS listed as the daughter of the head of household in this census enumeration refers to Ella Bell AKERS (born 2 November 1904).

Blue B. AKERS listed as the daughter of the head of household in this census enumeration refers to Gracie AKERS (born 2 June 1915) who was nicknamed Bluebird.

The Household above this one on the Census Enumeration was the household of William H. HOWELL who was married to Nancy L. (AKERS) HOWELL. Nancy was another child of Elon Octavia (BURCHETT) AKERS.
