I think you should save last search marker in variable like searchedMarker of type GMSMarker.

and next time when you search again for any location and you get action in btnSearchAction method.

@IBAction func btnSearchAction(_ sender: Any) 
{
searchedMarker.map = nil 
GetLocationFromAddress(address: self.txtSearch.text!)
}

and also update searchedMarker in GetLocationFromAddress method on creation of GMSMarker.
