The community of Eads was founded in 1888, when the Tennessee Midland Railroad tracks of Tennessee were laid out through a village that was known as Sewardville.[1]
After a seven-year court challenge to the right of Memphis to annex, small portions of Eads were annexed into the Memphis City Council Second District in the 1990s.[citation needed] Most of Eads is now designated as being in the Memphis reserve, meaning that Memphis can annex it at some point.[citation needed]
Deannexationedit
On January 1, 2020, a portion of Eads on the south side of US 64 and just north of the Grays Creek community, between west of Cobb Road and the unincorporated Shelby County boundary line was deannexed from the City of Memphis to return under county jurisdiction.[2]
