One of the main focuses of my research is on the Likins family. This name can be found spelled many ways, including Likins, Likens, Lykins, Lykens, Lycan, Lycon, Laicon, Laikin, etc. This family originated in Sweden and first came to America in 1654 as part of the New Sweden settlement on the Delaware River. My branch of the family moved from the Philadelphia area to Berks County, Pennsylvania, in the 1690's. By the 1770's, they had migrated to Frederick Co., Virginia, and in the 1830's moved out west to Ohio, and later to Indiana and Iowa.

I would be very happy to exchange information with others who are researching the Likins family. Please contact me for access to the reports on this page. Other surnames I am researching include Turck, Eckstein, Gill, Woodburn and Blumanthal.
