Comments

From http://tpettit.best.vwh.net/rowan/families/fg02/fg02_169.htm: Many researchers list her maiden name as Talbot, but this is likely to be an error based on overgeneralizing from the facts that Elizabeth Dalton was the witness to Matthew Talbot’s will and that Timothy Dalton named a John Talbot as the executor of his will. For further discussion of this issue, see the “Dalton Myths” page at http://www.wam.umd.edu/~jklumpp/gen/dalton/Talbot.html.

0 @T261@ NOTE !THE FIRST RECORD OF A LAND GRANT FOR HIM IS IN ALBEMARLE CO. IN 1732. HE LATER OWNED LAND IN HALIFAX CO. OTHER RECORDS ARE FOUND THAT INDICATE HE MAY HAVE OWNED LAND IN BRUNSWICK, PITTSLVANIA AND OTHER COUNTIES. His will was proved 10 Feb 1767 in Albermarle Co VA. It was written 3 Oct 1755. Elizabeth was still living in 1755. (Winston Dalton - Pittsylvania Co. Va. Journal) DHadrick@aol.com

Timothy Dalton was given a land grant in Albemarle County, Virginia, in 1732. In 1759, he had 150 acres in Halifax County, Virginia, (previously known as Lunenburg County, and later Pittsylvania County). Timothy Dalton's 1732 patent was on the Mechunk River in Hanover County. The Mechunk flows into the Rivanna after being formed by tributaries flowing off the eastern slopes of "the Little Mountain." The little Mountains form a ridge east of the Blue Ridge and a narrow valley separates the two ranges. It appears that all the early Daltons eventually lived in the northern part of the valley. There are references made to Priddys Creek, Jacobs Run, Wolf Trap Creek, and Turkey Run. There are other records that indicate he may have owned land in Brunswick, Spottsylvania, and other counties. Timothy made his will in 1755. He left all his property to his oldest son William as was the custom in those days.

Timothy Dalton b. ca 1690 VA? England?, d. 1767 Albemarle Co. VA. 1732 granted 400 ac. both sides of Machunk Cr. Hanover Co. Timothy & son Timothy, Jr. bought & sold land in Priddies Cr. area in Hanover Co. 1732-1745. Timothy, Jr relocates to Brunswick Co. VA & sells his Hanover land 1745.

This Timothy is the progenitor of many Daltons in Halifax, Bedford, Pittsylvania Cos. VA. He was b. ca 1715 , his WILL dated Jan 12, 1768 & proven Apr. 24, 1775 Bedford Co. Timothy, Sr. will written Oct. 3, 1755, proven Feb 6, 1767 Albemarle Co. and leaves all land to son William, excluding his wife, Elizabeth & other children. Would be interested in seeing documented accounts of Timothy, Sr. and wife prior to 1732.

He first appeared in the public records in 1726: Hanover or King George & Stafford Co. Va: 2 May 1726 Power of Attorney: I Lewis Griffith, formerly of County King George, but now of County Hanover ...impower my son, Richard of Parish Hanover, County of King George, to (sell) my land in King George & Stafford Counties. Wit: Thomas X Griffis, William X Obriant, & Timothy X Dalton...Stafford Co. VA Deed Bk 3, pp 258-259

There is a Timothy with five tithables in Orange Co. in 1736 (himself plus four). Tithables by law were white males 16 yrs and older and male and female slaves. Therefore Timothy could have had one or more sons and the remainder tithables could have been laborers and/or slaves. Could this be Timothy Jr?--not very likely because Tim Jr was born about 1715 and would have been about 21 years old in 1736. With two Timothy Daltons in this location, it is not reasonable that the youngest would be paying 5 tithes and the elder would not be taxed; therefore, this is probably Tim Sr: 19 Oct 1736 Orange Co. Tithables List: Timothy Dalton - 5...Orange Co. Va Tithables 1734-1782, Part One, Barbara Vine Little (Orange VA, 1988), p. 4

There is not a document yet found that states the names of any of Tim Sr's children other than William, listed in his will. William could have been the eldest or the youngest or any in between in Timothy's supposed line of children. In the 10th c. fathers sometimes passed family lands to young sons when they needed it to get started--not when the father died. That meant that older sons might not be mentioned in Dad's Will when the younger sons were, sons who had not yet been given their inheritance. Son William below could be any age but a child (under 16). We don't know if William were over 21 since the Will does not mention any ownership of land: Albemarle Co.
