Seeking info on EBEN LINCOLN of Massachusetts

Eben was Ebenezer B. (probably Bates) Lincoln, first son of Jared Lincoln and his second wife, Ruth Bates. I have photos of both Jared and Ruth, Jared being my g-g-g-grandfather. Eben and his wife Hannah Maria Akers (known as Maria) had two children, Hannah M. (probably Maria) and Alice Rebecca. Hannah M. married Lincoln Swain and had no children. Alice Rebecca married Charles Nelson Whitten, removed to New York and raised three children, all of whom had children of their own. I have been in contact with descendants of the Whittens.
Hannah (aka Maria) and Eben Lincoln are both burried in Grave #1, Lot 410, Section 9, Cedar Grove Cemetery, Dorchester, Suffolk, Mass. Hannah predeceased Eben and was originally burried at Copp's Hill Cemetery. About five months after Eben's death, her remains were transferred to Cedar Grove and placed in the same grave.
Hannah (aka Maria) had a brother, William F. Akers, a sailmaker who, at 19 years of age, was with Hannah and Eben at the time of the 1850 census. I have not followed up on the life of William, nor looked for a death cert. for William, but if one is available it may give the information you seek regarding Hannah's and his parents.
I have been unable to locate a death record for Hannah.
I have a great deal more information on this branch of the Lincoln family I would be happy to share with you but little on the Akers family. What is your connection? Don't hesitate to contact me with any questions.
