When it came to choosing a mate, the Delks preferred one of their own. In 1806 Samuel Delk married his cousin, Anna Delk, David's daughter, and they made their home in Tattnall County.
Their oldest daughter, Nancy, married John H. Baxter in 1824, and the next year the two families moved to Gadsden County, Florida. Ten years later Samuel Delk and John Baxter decided to return to Georgia after the Seminoles refused to give up the lands they had ceded by treaty and threatened to renew the war. They came back in 1834 and established their homes on Taylor's Creek.
