Eakes in Wilson County, Tennessee

Classification: Query
Surnames: Eakes
I have been a lifelong resident of Wilson County and all of my relatives were from here as well. I had a post a few years back saying I had a little information on a cemetery in the Suggs Creek community. I just found a website that has gone through the cemtery and posted what they could find on all the tombstones. There are a few Eakes' and then it shows the names of the graves that had "Eakes" spelled as "Eaks". I was alway told this is how our name was first spelled. Here is the link:

I found it by doing a general search saying, "Suggs Creek Cemetery". The graves go back to the 1800's. Hope this can help someone out there.
