Subject: Biography of John Austin Darden
Surname: Darden, Webb
-------------------------
"John Austin Darden was born at Bentleyville, Coosa county, Ala.,
on the
2nd day of April, 1879. He is the son of John Alexander and Georgia
Elizabeth (Webb) Darden. His father and mother were born and reared
near Hanover,
Coosa county, Ala. His paternal grandfather, Uriah Addison Darden,
was
a native Georgian and moved to Talladega Ala., about 1845, and in
1850
to Coosa county, where he died in August, 1903, at the age of seventy-nine
years. His paternal grandmother was a Miss Mary Logan, daughter
of
Alexander
Logan, one of the veterans of the War of 1812, and one of the earliest
settlers of Coosa county, where his daughter was born. Austin Pain
Webb,
who was also a native Georgian and an early settler of Coosa county,
was
his maternal grandfather. His maternal grandmother was a Miss Mary
Elizabeth
Thomas, daughter of Stephen Thomas, who came to Coosa county soil
in early
pioneer days. John Alexander Darden, the father of the subject of
this
sketch, was a teacher by profession, and spent his life in Coosa
county,
dying on Jan. 20, 1885, leaving his wife and four children, John
Austin,
William Anderson, Georgia Hester, and Annie Alexander, the oldest
being
only six years of age. He was a Democrat and identified himself
with the
Baptist church, of which his wife was a member. In 1890 the mother
of John
Austin died. After the decease of the mother the brother and sisters,
together
with John Austin, made their home with their grandfather Darden.
John
Austin,
the subject of this article, had very meager opportunities for schooling;
being the oldest, he was the mainstay for helping his widowed mother
to
make a living on the farm, where he plowed from the time he was
eight years
old. After the death of his mother he continued to work on the farm
as
before with his grandfather. In the meantime he had studied diligently
the two or three months he was permitted to attend school and between
schools
he continued his studies daily at home, sitting up late at night
Lincoln-like.
At the age of seventeen he hired a hand to help gather the crop,
so he
might attend one full term of winter school at Andrews’ Chapel.
Here he
had only attended a month when his uncle, Addie Darden, who was
teaching
school in the community where young Darden was living, was taken
sick and
John Austin was selected temporarily to teach his school until the
recovery
of his uncle. His uncle failed to recover for several months and
the
patrons
continued their neighbor boy in the school for the remainder of
the session
and as long thereafter as they could secure his services. In the
following
spring, young Darden, then eighteen, asked his grandparents the
permission
to attend school, having missed his winter’s schooling, whereupon
they
told him if he could make his own way he might attend, as they were
unable
to aid him. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he entered immediately
the Flint Hill high school at Bentleyville, where, under the direction
of Prof. A. R. Jones, he prepared himself for college. The next
fall he
enter the sophomore class of the Fourth District Agricultural college,
where he attended for three session, teaching in vacation, and graduating
in 1900. In 1901, Mr. Darden entered the University of Alabama,
taking
the degree of bachelor of laws, 1903. He is now practicing his chosen
profession
at Goodwater, Coosa county, Ala., where he enjoys a lucrative practice.
He is a true Democrat, a Knight of Pythias and a consistent member
of the
Baptist church. On Sept. 23, 1900, Mr. Darden was married to Miss
Vashti
Olie Sellers, of Nixburg, Coosa county, Ala., daughter of Sampson
Elija
and Martha J. Sellers. Mr. Sellers move to Coosa county form Georgia
when
a small boy; died in 1903 at the age of seventy-nine. Mrs. Martha
Jane
(Johnston) Sellers survives. Mr. Darden carried his wife with him
when
he took his law course and she assisted him in paying his way by
taking
boarders. Two children have been born to Mr. and Mrs. Darden: Mabel
Clara,
born Oct. 2, 1901, and Eschol Sampson, born Jan. 9, 1903." (1)

Subject: Benjamin and Mary Robbins, Coosa Co. AL
Surname: WELLS, ROBBINS, SELLERS, BATTLE
-------------------------
Children of Benjamin ROBBINS, Jr. and Mary ROBBINS (from transcribed
Bible
record)
Elizabeth ROBBINS, Mary ROBBINS, John W. ROBBINS, Joel ROBBINS,
Benjamin
ROBBINS, Solomon ROBBINS, Sarah ROBBINS, Eliza ROBBINS, Martha ROBBINS,
Charity ROBBINS, Elias ROBBINS, Anne Jane ROBBINS, & William
J. ROBBINS.
Have spouses for a few of these.
Benjamin ROBBINS (Sr.) was son of Arthur Robbins and Penelope SELLERS
of
Brunswick Co. NC. Benjamin Sr. had three
sons (Solomon, Benjamin Jr and
Daniel Arter) who lived in Coosa Co.AL.
If family tradition is correct, Mary, Mrs. Benjamin Robbins, Jr.
would
be the full blood Native American ancestor of this line. Any tips
on how
to track her ancestry will be rewarded in heaven! (She apparently
died
between 1850 and 1860, probably in Wood Co.
TX.)
