I would think that such an index would be sufficient, but you could
check for yourself by doing something like
explain select 1 from <table> where account_id = <something>
and verifying that you get an indexscan not a seqscan, for each
dependent table.

Thanks, Tom. I found 12 tables with Sequential scans.
We'll fix that.
Appreciate the help.
