John, There was a James Westbrook in Johnson Co IL., in 1820 Mike Howerton <mhowerton@new.rr.com> wrote: Hi Jon; My 4th great grandmother was Nancy Westbrook 1816-1884 she was married to Abel Ford 1812-1890. Her parents were James Westbrook and Anna McGowan. I didn't know the Westbrooks had a connection to the old slave house. Mike I've got some info on the Westbrooks. I'm descended from them on my father's side, plus they've popped up in my research on the Old Slave House and the saltworks.
