Delilah Ann Hinson was the great grandmother of Brunell Bashlor Barlow, Maxwell Bashlor, Janette Bashlor Kinsey, and Mildred Cox Warren. She was born in Anson County, North Carolina and moved with her father, Charles Hinson, to Pulaski County, Georgia. She may have already been married to Noah Green, also of Anson County, North Carolina or married him shortly thereafter. They moved first to Lowndes County and later to Berrien County. The story is told that Noah Green died of a sudden heart attack before he could unload his wagon in Berrien County in the 1850's. Berrien County had been formed from part of Lowndes County in 1856, and his death probably occurred sometime after that date.  His widow, Delilah or "Dilly" as she was called, was left to raise eight children alone, but not for long. By 1858 she married again, this time to Levi Drawdy, a prosperous farmer in Berrien County whose wife had died some years earlier.  The union of Dilly and Levi produced two children, Sylvester and Perry Drawdy.   The family of Levi Drawdy was enter twined with that of Noah and Delilah Green through several marriages.  Daniel Drawdy, son of Levi, married his stepsister Susannah Green, daughter of Noah and Delilah.  Keziah Drawdy, daughter of Levi, was the second wife of Samuel D. Cox, whose son Horace married Sarah Green, daughter of Noah and Delilah. Keziah then became Sarah's mother-in-law as well as her stepsister.  Sarah Green, our ancestor, was raised in the home of Levi Drawdy

Delilah Ann Hinson Green Drawdy outlived two husbands and died at the age of 101 in Berrien County. She is buried along with other members of the Green and Drawdy families in Old Union Cemetery, sometimes referred to as Burnt Church Cemetery, two miles southeast of Lakeland, Georgia.

Celestine Sibley, long time columnist for the Atlanta Constitution and author of numerous books, speaks in her memoir Turned Funny of King Hinson , her great grandfather and the nephew of our ancestor Delilah Ann Hinson. King's wife's parents did not want him to marry their daughter because in their eyes he was nothing but a "sorry renter," a term applied to those who were not fortunate enough to own land and had to work on the land of others. When he was able to buy his own land, his daughters complained that he was a tyrant, forcing them to work in the fields from "can till can't."

Celestine relates the story of one of King's daughters, "Dilly" Hinson, who had a burning desire to go to the circus when it came to Nashville in Berrien County, Georgia. She earned money for the circus by washing out smelly guano fertilizer sacks and selling them for a few pennies. Finally she had enough money to buy tickets for herself and two sisters, and they were getting ready to walk the five miles to Nashville when their father drove up in the yard and made them get back to work in the field.  Many years later Celestine  was rather put out when Aunt Dilly insisted on going to the circus with her and some teenage friends, until her mother repeated the story of Aunt Dilly's early disappointment.
