Instead they were apparently brothers. This speculation is based on what is usually referred to as the James W. Prowell bible which identifies a number of Westbrook births (among other dates), with the dates by virtue of their continuity seeming to suggest a number of siblings (this information has been transcribed on page 253 of Allie Everhart Miller (compiler), BIBLE RECORDS AND A FEW PREREQUISITE ITEMS, Mississippi DAR, 1934-1936). For anyone interested in Westbrooks I will list in abbreviated form the names and birth dates: all below are Westbrooks James 30 Dec. 1772 Charles 22 Dec. 1774 Simon 14 Dec. 1776 John 17 Dec. 1779 Sarah 22 Sept. 1781 Henry 10 May 1782 Elizabeth 7 Feb. 1783 Mary 25 Dec. 1786 Moses 9 May 1788 Fanster 10 Feb. 1790
