Martha, Article 492A William Darden, p. 258-259, of Chronicles of Pitt County, North Carolina, 1982 ‹ These are the sources listed at the end of that article submitted by Nancy Newsom Darden (Mrs. James H., Jr.) "Extensively researched history of William Darden family by P. "Cliff" Darden, III, (gives a Wilson N. C. address and phone number, but that was in 1982); Darden family Bibles (yes, plural); J. H. Darden family research notes, papers, letters, and copies of original early deeds, wills and estate settlements; Darden family cemetery; NC Archives records; Hertford Co., Gates Co., and Pitt Co., records; J. H. Darden Sr. was gr-grandson of subject." Maybe Westbrook was in one of the old documents.
