SW Pender County on Black River near the mouth of Moore's Creek, a shipping point for goods sent by water. Dates from prior to the Revolution. Apparently, site was authorized to be laid off in 1798 for the town of Parkersborough on the land of Hardy Parker. It is not known whether the town was actually established. The remains of an old wharf may still be seen a short distance from the bank of the river. A fishing camp is now operated at the site, and three old roads through the woods converge at the wharf site.

See Wardville.
