This is a small family that is extremely poorly documented, with most records gone, if they ever existed, which makes it very difficult to reconstruct its family tree. Therefore, the information presented here is still very incomplete, and most of what is here needs further verification.

There are other African American families that originated in Darlington, South Carolina. It is not known if these families are related to each other or to the pre-Civil War Parrott family of Darlington. These families are identified according to their earliest known ancestor:
