The first account that records the event found by historians was written by Nestorius the Syrian, Patriarch of Constantinople around 428 - 431 A.D. Nero had a cross made in the form of an upsidedown "V" and crucified Peter on it, head down. This seems to be the first written account of the "Cross of Nero" otherwise known as the "broken cross". There are other written accounts out there, I'm sure, but this one was ascribed to a known person in history.
Hope this helps answer your question. Good luck.

Yes, the details and accounts are in "Foxe's Book of Martyrs". It's available for free via download on the internet.
