Her Father Marvin Luther (Luke, which she hasn't seen in 3 yrs.) was the son of Pamela Eakes. It is my understanding that Pamela died when her two son's very very young. Her sister Dois Eakes Rollins adopted these boys. Dois died this last year. There was some problems in the Rollins family about the adoption of these boys and they are estranged from this family, the best I can tell. My gr-daughter has no conection on her dad's side of the family. She is still a little young, but I have tried to gather information so if she wants to know about her father's side of the family I can tell her. I have done a little research on the Eakes, I would have to dig it out as it has been a while since I worked on it. I would love to hear form you again and hear anyting you would like to share. Sincerely, Tricia
