5. DELILA "DILLY"² LANDERS (LUKE¹) was born July 31, 1769 in Granville County, North Carolina, and died October 30, 1849 in Benton (Calhoun) County, Alabama (Source: 1850 Mortality Schedule Benton(Calhoun) County lists Delila Swan). She married (1) BENJAMIN PAGE Abt. 1786. He was born Abt. 1755, and died Bef. 1794. She married (2) JOSEPH JR. CARTLEDGE Abt. 1792 in Columbia County, Georgia, son of EDMUND CARTLEDGE and ELIZABETH KEBLE. He was born October 27, 1748 in Richmond County, North Carolina, and died Abt. January 1795 in Columbia County, Georgia. She married (3) SHADRACK ROBERTS Aft. 1799, son of RICHARD ROBERTS and ELIZABETH MONTGOMERY. He was born Abt. 1764 in Granville County, North Carolina, and died Abt. 1804 in Columbia County, Georgia. She married (4) JONATHAN SWANN Aft. 1805. He died Bef. 1829.

Notes for DELILA "DILLY" LANDERS:
Dilly Landers married four times: (1) Bejamin PAGE, (2) Joseph CARTLEDGE, (3) Shadrack ROBERTS , & (4) Jonathan SWANN.

Dilly's birth is found in a family Bible record published in Simon Elbert Boozer and Mary Ann Landers Payne, History of the Landers Family in America [Anniston AL, 1966, found in GA Archives, Atlanta], p. 7.

"It was not by her second husband Joseph Cartledge, but by her third, Shadrach Roberts, that she had the posthumous child. Perhaps this inaccuracy is an instance of Dilly's "most entertaining conversational powers."

"After grandfather's (Joseph Cartledge) death, my grandmother (Dilly Landers Page Cartledge) was twice married, first to a Mr. [Shadrack] Roberts, and afterwards to a Mr. [Jonathan] Swann. She was married four times, raised a family by each of her husbands, buried all four of them in succession, and then lived a widow for the last twenty years of her life. She died in Benton County, Alabama, in 1851 in the ninety-third years of her life. Of all persons whom I have personally known, my grandmother Cartledge was gifted with the most entertaining conversational powers. She could make her conversation interesting and attractive to young and old alike, to the learned and the unlearned. She had a much better education than most women of her time, her father, LUKE LANDERS, a successful teacher, having given his children an unusually good education for that day and time."

Dilly Swan was among the original members of the church (1820).

The 1850 Mortality Schedule for Benton (Calhoun) County, Alabama lists Delila Swan, age 80, widow, born N.C.; died Oct 1849 with dropsy - sick for 21 days.

Delila may been living with her daughter, Elizabeth (Page) Spaulding Roberts in 1840. Listed in the household of Elizabeth Roberts in 1840, Benton County, AL is a female aged 80 & under 90. Of course, Delila would have been 70 & under 80 in 1840, could be a census mistake.

Notes for JOSEPH JR. CARTLEDGE:
"Joseph Cartledge, Jr., brother of James Edmund and Samuel, was my grandfather. He was a brave soldier of the Revolution as were all his male kindred who were able to bear arms. He knew no fear. He live unmarried until he was forty-seven, then he married Dilly Landers Page, a widow, the daughter of Luke Landers."

"My father, Samuel Cartledge, son of Joseph Cartledge Jr. and Dilly Landers Page, was born in Columbia County, Georgia March 28, 1795. He never saw his father on earth, he having died two or three months before."
