About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

The Ackerman family, from Bergen County, New Jersey, were among the early settlers in the short-lived town of Keokuk, established in the late 1850's in Kansas Territory (Kansas would become a state in 1861). Located in the northeast corner of Section 35, Township 20 South, Range 22 East, Liberty Township, Keokuk and all of Linn County was located within the area of unrest brought on by violent civil confrontations between pro-slavery and anti-slavery factions, at odds regarding the question of whether the Kansas Territory would allow or outlaw slavery and achieve statehood as a slave state or a free state. This unrest, combined with related economic setbacks, caused a quick decline in the young town's population and by the start of the Civil War, it had dissolved. Johannes Ackerman died after the close of the Civil War and was buried on the farm where he lived, on high ground between the north fork and main (south) branch of Big Sugar Creek.
