"ON my own accord" and "of my own accord".

"Of my own accord" means of my own will, without coercion or force. It is the correct form of the idiom.
"On my one accord" is technically incorrect, but still used a lot.

I believe both idioms are correct and have the same meaning:
Spontaneous or voluntary desire to take a certain action.
Example:
The children returned on their own accord. He confessed of his own accord.
