I am researching the EAKIN family from Falls County. My gg-grandfather was Robert James EAKIN. He and my gg-grandmother Amanda Jane Stidham raised 11 children in the Chilton area. Most of them are buried in Carolina Hills Cemetery or the Chilton Cemetery. I am also trying to find out about the RODDEY family. My great-grandfather James Isom EAKIN married Willie E. RODDEY in 1905. I haven't been able to locate any of the RODDEY family though. I do know from a great aunt, that Willie's mother's maiden name was WHITAKER. In another line of my family, I am researching the POLK family....Elias Franklin POLK (a new discovery) is buried in Chilton Cemetery also. He was married to Sallie LADD in the 1860's. I don't know much about him. Thanks. Pat Hargus Sommerfield
