0 @T261@ NOTE !THE FIRST RECORD OF A LAND GRANT FOR HIM IS IN ALBEMARL E CO. IN 1732. HE LATER OWNED LAND IN HALIFAX CO. OTHER RECORDS ARE FO UND THAT INDICATE HE MAY HAVE OWNED LAND IN BRUNSWICK, PITTSLVANIA AN D OTHER COUNTIES. His will was proved 10 Feb 1767 in Albermarle Co V A. 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, i n 1732. In 1759, he had 150 acres in Halifax County, Virginia, ( previously kn own as Lunenburg County, and later Pittsylvania County). Timothy Dalton's 17 32 patent was on the Mechunk River in Hanover County. The Mechunk flows into the Rivanna after being formed by tributaries flowing off the eas tern 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 a ll the early Daltons eventually lived in the northern part of the valley. Th ere are references made to Priddys Creek, Jacobs Run, Wolf Trap Creek, and Tur key Run.There are other records that indicate he may have owned land i n 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. 173 2 granted 400 ac. both sides of Machunk Cr. Hanover Co. Timothy & son Timothy, Jr. bought & sold land in Priddies Cr. area in Hanover Co. 17 32-1745. Timothy,Jr relocates to Brunswick Co. VA & sells his Hanover land 1745.

This Timothy is the progenitor of many Daltons in Halifax, Bedford, Pi ttsylvania 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, 175 5, 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.

Sources; mdcrain@mindspring.com (melanie d. crain) Because Tim Jr appeared to be the first Dalton who moved from Albemarl e to the Bedford-Pittsylvania Co. area (patents dated 1759), he seemed t o be the "father of them all." But was he? He came in the company of David and John and was followed a bit later by Robert.

All four of these men show indications that they were about the same generational-age. The 1767 Pittsylvania Co. tithable list indeed had David (with son Benjamin), John, and Robert (with his sons John and Robert Jr). But NO Timothy...So we may have at least four Daltons producing all the later Pittsylvania Co. descendants. Sources; Genebow@aol.com

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, b ut now of County Hanover...impower my son, Richard of Parish Hanover, County of King George, to (sell) my land in King George & Stafford Cou nties. 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 t he remainder tithables could have been laborers and/or slaves. Could thi s 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 i n 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 be en the eldest or the youngest or any in between in Timothy's supposed line of children. In the 18th c. fathers sometimes passed family lands to youn g sons when they needed it to get started--not when the father died. That meant that older sons might not be m entioned in Dad's Will when the younger sons were, sons who ha d not yet been given their inheritance. Son William below coul d be any age but a child (under 16). We don't know if W illiam were over 21 since the Will does not mention any ownership of l and: Albemarle Co.

ALTERNATE BIRTHPLACE : England Note: WORK IN PROGRESS: Trying to sort out this family.. 1. Was Timothy Sr married to Elizabeth Talbot or Elizabeth Phillips? The fact that Timothy from Bedford was married to Elizabeth Talbot maybe a myth: From the website: The only support known for this is that Elizabeth witnessed the will of Matthew Talbot of Bedford County in 1758. Apparently this has been taken as some indication of relationship to the Talbots. Perhaps the appointment of John Talbot as executor of Timothy's will is also taken as evidence.There are presently no strong clues to the maiden name of Elizabeth, Timothy's wife. From the record, however, it is quite unlikely that she was a Talbot. [1] Son of William Dalton. Timothy married Elizabeth (1694-). Timothy and Elizabeth have at least four sons, Timothy Jr., William, Richard and John and possibly a daughter, Elizabeth.[citation needed] 2. Was William Dalton the father of Timothy? Nothing in the record proves with certainty that William is not Timothy's father. But by the time of Timothy's birth in 1715, William and Margaret were having their births recorded in the Abington Parish Register. Given the religious importance of such registration it would be unusual for a child to not be recorded when other children before and after were recorded. The record indicates that Mary Brockenbrough was never married to a William Dalton[2]. From the Dalton Gang story by Nancy Samuelson: Timothy Dalton appears to be the earliest American Dalton ancestor of the Dalton gang. Timothy may have been born in England but the date is unknown. He names his wife, Elizabeth, in his will but nothing further is known about her. Timothy was probably a very old man when he died in 1767. He made his will in 1755 and stated that he was weak in body at that time. The first record of a land grant for Tmothy is in Albermarle Co. in 1732. He later owned land in Halifax Co. (the area that was proviously Lunenburg Co. and latter Pittsylvania Co.-hereafter Pitts Co.). Other records are found for Timothy that indicate that he may have owned land in Brunswick, Spottslvania, and other counties. In 1738 Timothy Dalton Jr., almost certainly the son of the older Tim, also received land by grant in Albermarle Co. Timothy Sr. may have had some falling out with most of his family, because he left his entire estate to his son William and nothing to his wife or to any other children. His son William may be the William Dalton that died in 1783 in Albermarle. Other possible children are Richard and John who died in Albermarle in 1774 and 1787 [3]
