The Dalton's and Everard settled in Hampton, New Hampshire. Deborah Everard is the woman that married Jasper Blake not Deborah Dalton.

The family all used the same names - Timothy, Philemon, Israel, Samuel, John.

The is a paragraph from the article.[1]

"Unlike most immigrant families from this era, there are many records of the Daltons, in both New England and Old. We interpret the marriage records for Timothy Dalton in 1615 to the 36 year old Ruth Leete and Philemon Dalton in 1625 to 25 year old Anne Cole, as well as the 1623 marriage of Sarah Dalton to 25 year old Richard Everard as belonging to nuclear family of three siblings. Further, the 1628 Woolverstone baptism of Sarah Dalton's daughter, Deborah Everard, provides the identy of the wife of Jaspaer Blake of Hampton. The Dalton's, Blakes, and Everard's were cousins in the modern sense, rahter than nephew.

This article has great genalogical information and history. The article referrs to Deborah going to America with her father and his second wife. Prior to her marriage she lived with her uncle, the Rev. Timothy Dalton. She was given a gift of land by Rev. Timothy Dalton to Jasper Blake, as described in Jasper's will, we know that Deborah received what must have been her marriage portion through her uncle. This very gift of land has been used by earlier writers as evidence to support the theory that Deborah was a daughter of Rev. Mr. Dalton."
