From him in a direct line came Robert Dalton, Esq. of Byspham and Pilling, who purchased the manor and estate of Thurnham in the year 1556. At his death in 1580, without issue, he was succeeded by his nephew Robert, the son of his younger brother, Thomas Dalton, Esq. and Anne, the daughter of Sir Richard Molyneux, Knt. of Sephton. Robert Dalton, Esq. died in 1626, and was succeeded by his only son Thomas, who distinguished himself in the cause of Royalty, having raised a regiment of horse at his own expense, to support his sovereign, Charles I. He was desperately wounded at the second battle of Newbury, in 1643, of which he soon afterwards died, and was succeeded in his estate at Thurnham Hall by his son Robert, who made some additions to the Mansion, and married Elizabeth, the daughter and heiress of Thomas Horner, Esq. of Middleham, in Yorkshire, by whom he had issue two daughters, co-heiresses ; Dorothy, the youngest, inherited the Manors of Caton and Aldcliffe, in Lancashire, part of her father's property, and Elizabeth, the eldest, married William Hoghton, Esq. of Park Hall, in this county.
