"The Vaughn Ackerman Family: Vaughn Ackerman first came to this part of the country from Missouri to work in the gold mine at Lead, South Dakota. He had a sister here....After Vaughn and Villa were married, they homesteaded on the Goldie Divide on what is now known as the E.J. Wood place. It was there that their first son Everett was born in 1907.
The Ackerman family and the Ed Jolley family sold their places on the Goldie Divide and moved to Ekalaka, Montana where they were living during the hard winter of 1911 and 1912. After living there a few years, they moved to Prince Rupert, Canada where they lived for a year or so before going to Washington in the Yakima area. During this time they lost a baby son which affected Mrs. Ackerman's health so that she was unable to walk for a year. They also lost a baby daughter.."
