Town Creek, where John and Delilah appear to have spent the vast majority of their lives, is now one of six townships of Brunswick County, North Carolina. Located at the southernmost tip of the state, Brunswick County was formed in 1764 from New Hanover and Bladen counties. The Atlantic Ocean, the Cape Fear River, the state of South Carolina, and Columbus, Pender and New Hanover counties form its boundaries. William Hilton, sent by the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1862 to explore the lower region of the Cape Fear River, found favorable conditions here. New Englander’s soon came to establish a settlement.
