Philomen Hawkins and his wife, Lucy Davis. Delia and her siblings were raised on the family plantation "Pleasant Hill" in Warren County. Her older sister, Eleanor Howard Hawkins, married Sherwood Haywood, Stephen's older brother. The Philomen Hawkins family are descendants of the first Philomen Hawkins (ca. 1690-1795) who arrived from England in the American Colony of Virginia with 5 brothers in the early 1700's. The family eventually gained land in North Carolina, settling in the Warren County area. The Philomen Hawkins family were prominent and prosperous planters, who also had many businesses including sawmills, banking, machinery and phosphate manufacturing. Many family members held public offices in the Federal government, and indeed, one of Philemon and Lucy's sons, William Hawkins (1777-1819), served as 17th Governor for the State of North Carolina from 1811-1814. Delia was 27 years old when she married the 37-year old widower, Stephen Haywood, and became stepmother to his two children by first wife, Elizabeth Lane, daughter of Joel Lane of Raleigh. Delia and Stephen would have 5 known children together: William Dallas (1810); Margaret Craven(1812), who married George Little; Philomen H. (ca. 1817), Lucinda D. (1818), who married John Sasser; and Sarah "Sallie" Blount Haywood (1822), who never married. Delia was widowed in 1824 when Stephen passed at age 52. She survived another 27 years, passing in 1851 at age 69.
