Let $\left( X,\,\mathcal{B},\,m,\,\tau \right)$ be a dynamical system with $\left( X,\mathcal{B},m \right)$ a probability space and $\tau $ an invertible, measure preserving transformation. This paper deals with the almost everywhere convergence in ${{\text{L}}^{1}}\left( X \right)$ of a sequence of operators of weighted averages. Almost everywhere convergence follows once we obtain an appropriate maximal estimate and once we provide a dense class where convergence holds almost everywhere. The weights are given by convolution products of members of a sequence of probability measures $\left\{ {{v}_{i}} \right\}$ defined on $\mathbb{Z}$. We then exhibit cases of such averages where convergence fails.
