Just like when the Balzotti brothers came through they clearly said Ball-tzo-tea but the Ellis Island New Yorker said Bell-saw-dee back and confused a whole bunch of the posterity.Book Look Column Authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16524822457244417934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1377846677475474487.post-55960867900433910632009-07-29T12:12:33.130-07:002009-07-29T12:12:33.130-07:00Don't you think Ackerman is awfully close to A...Don't you think Ackerman is awfully close to Akemann. I bet you anything that two brothers landed at Ellis Island and when they were lining up to come into America they got into 2 separate lines. And when one brother said his last name the ellis island guy wrote down Ackerman. Then the other brother said his last name and the other ellis island guy wrote down Akemann. And just like that they weren't even related anymore. I'm sure that's it!Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14768521630447992742noreply@blogger.com
