Acker-632 and Acker-46 appear to represent the same person because: Appear to have been accidental duplicates made by different people.
Acker-31 and Acker-46 do not represent the same person because: These two individuals are not the same generation. Acker-31 is actually a duplicate of Acker-33 (the father of Acker-46.

Philip

Jacob Acker, was buried at Ziegel church. The tombstone of Jacob Acker, a slate slab, contains the following inscription: "Here rests in God, Jacob Acker, who was born 7/25/1736, had lived in the matrimonial state with Eberhartine Heisler for 47 years, to whom nine children were born, eight sons and one daughter." The rest of the inscription was defaced. Eberhartine Acker survived her husband and lived to an old age in the small house on the old Acker farm in Weisenburg. Jacob Acker married Eberhartine Heisler, daughter of Christian Heisler and his wife Eva Elizabeth. They had those children: Christian, born 12/25/1755; Philip Jacob, born 8/30/1757; John Leonhart, born 9/22/1752; George Henry, born 12/10/1761; Daniel; Michael, born 12/25/1766; John, and two daughters.

"Philip Jacob Acker, the ancestor of this family,

was born in 1696 in Germany and landed at Philadelphia on 9/23/1732, on the ship "Loyal Judith," with his brother Henry Acker. He was then thirty-six years of age. He settled in the district, which at that time was called Macungie in Bucks county, now Upper Macungie township, Lehigh County, about six miles west of Allentown, on what is now the Koch farm, on the south side of the public road leading from Allentown to Fogelsville, located several miles east of Fogelsville and probably one mile east of Chapman's Station on the Catasauqua and Fogelsville Railroad.
