Archibald may have been married more than once. I am not sure that Darkus Darnes is the same person as Mima. If her last name is really Darnes, she is the only one I have found in Wake Co. Archibald died in 1795 and his will was never presented for probate. His youngest son, Mark, filed a lawsuit against Mima and Randolph and Elizabeth "Betsy" House Cope. Randolph and Elizabeth are my 4th gr grandparents. Mark lost the suit but it is thought that he moved to GA near his uncle, James House. Mark had died before 1850. I can move sideways on the House lines but I am having a problem getting past Archibald and his father (Thomas?). Phyllis Mistrot
