    1. [NCWAKE] Delk - Hall Marriage - NC
    2. Betty A. Pace
    3. I am looking for JACOB DELK and wife and lived in NC. They had a daughter named EDEA or perhaps EDY who married JAMES HALL (1757-1821 in Johnston Co. NC). He was a veteran of the American Revolution having signed up in Wake Co., NC and in Johnston Co. NC--the little tip of land in Johnston Co. at one time was in Wake or vice versa, depending on time frame. I think this James Hall might be the father of my ZILPHA HALL (B.about 1798 in Wake or Johnston Co., NC). She married Alsey PACE in Johnston Co. NC in 1820 and they were living next door to James Hall in 1820 census. She named a child Edy and that is a clue. However, when her "brothers" Reddick and Green Hall applied for their father's American Revolution pension at the death of their mother Edea Hall in 1848, Zilpha was not among the children they listed (they said all children besides themselves were deceased, which I find hard to believe). By that time they were in Coweta Co. NC and there was a BIRD DELK living there. In the 1860 Coweta Co. GA census, Reddick/Riddick Hall and wife Jane___ lived next door to a JOSEPH DELK (age probably 51 but hard to read) and wife Elender age 47. Their children were Joseph (28), Thomas (18), Delsa (13), William (24), and James (14). I am not certain of these names because census is hard to read--I can send it to you if you wish. I wonder if you know anything of the Jacob Delk who was the father of Edea/Edy Delk Hall? I think perhaps she went to Coweta Co. GA with her sons before her death but can't be certain. I have the Rev. Pension papers of James Hall, showing his wife EDEA as the daughter of Jacob DELK. Betty Pace
