He then moved to Jefferson County, Fla., 1833 but was back in Lowndes County in the 1840 census. His Jefferson County home was on a tract of 80 acres in Section 4, Township 2, which he joined by his wife Nancy sold to Daniel Lingo, Feb, 7, 1835 (Deed Book "C", page 48, Jefferson County). On Aug. 13, 1840, lot of land 43, 16th district of Lowndes (now Echols County) was granted him by the State, it having been drawn by him in the 1820 lottery while living in Bryan County. He moved there to that location and lived there until he moved to Ware County in 1843, where he settled in the present Manor district.
Following his first wife's death about 1845, Mr. Gelger married Mrs. Fannie (Frances) Bennett, born 1800 in North Carolina, widow of John Bennett (Vol. I), and sister to Thompson Harris (Vol.I) and Hampton Harris (Vol,111). There were no children born by that marriage.
