DELK. Roger Delk came to Virginia in the Southampton, and was employed by John Chew

on his plantation at Hog Island, in 1624 (Hotten's Emigrants to America). In 1631-32 he

was burgess for Stanley Hundred. He died about 1635, for his widow, Alice, patented land

on Lawnes Creek in 1635. Roger Delk, their son, was born in 1634, according to his

deposition in 1674, when he stated he was forty years old.

Page 66.

There is a deed recorded in Surry county, dated December 5, 1639, from Roger Delk, to

Capt. Thomas Adams for 100 acres, and on November 9, 1659, Alice Gregory, widow of Roger

Delk, and mother of Roger Delk who made the deed, gives her consent to the deed. Gregory

was her third husband, for on Dec. 23, 1636, Nicholas Reynolds patented 1,000 acres at

Lawne's Creek, adjoining the lands of Edward rogers and Captain William Pierce, said land

"being granted by Capt. Thomas West, late deceased, to Roger Delke, also lately deceased,

and now due said Reynolds as marrying the widow said Delke". On August 23, 1661, Roger

Delk, second of the name (and Rebecca his wife), for love and affection deeded to his

"brothers, Francis and Robert Rennells, born of his mother, Alice Gregory (wife of John

Gregory) by her husband, Nicholas Reynolds of Lawne's Creek, deced.", a tract of land in

Surry County. In 1673 Roger Delk took part in an incipient mutiny in Surry County against

the taxes laid by the justices in their levy for their expenses for "Drams and Cyder".

(QUARTERLY III., 123). In 1687 he was one of a company of horse for Surry County. His

will, dated October 28, 1692, proved July 4, 1693, names legatees: Eldest son John,

daughter Rebecca (a large silver cup, two gold rings and a silver bodkin), youngest sons,

Roger and Joseph, wife Elizabeth. There is a deed recorded in Surry from Joseph Delk,

dated 1735. Virginia Maga. of History and Biography III., 277. Roger Delk made his will,

which was proved in Surry April 29, 1773. I have not the details. Mrs. Delk is mentioned

in the will of Elizabeth Stith (1764). In 1778 Moreland Delk was ensign in the company

in Isle of Wight, of which William Gray was captain. (Isle of Wight Co. records).
