(1) Dalton (Dalton Haye, co. York and London)
Dalton ( of Dalton Fields, in the County of Yorkshire and also of London).

followed by a colour.
Crest - a dragon's head vert. / betw. two wings or. / pellettee.
Crest:- A dragon's head in green / between two wings in gold / resting on a cushion (which is usually black if no other colour is given.)
This seems to be the main Dalton shield with the diffences for a younger son in the pose of the lion, reguardant, and the red star on its breast.
(2) Dalton (co. York)
Az. / a lion ramp guard. ar. / within a bordure / engr. or.
An azure blue shield / with a lion standing on its hind legs in silver / within a border /
with a scalloped edge in gold.

A silver shield / with an azure blue cross / and between the arms of the cross, four green parrots.

A red shield, with a St. Andrew’s cross, cut off so that it does not touch the sides of the shield, in Silver.

Gules, semee , Cross crosslets, or, a lion rampant argent.
A red shield, covered, with small crosses with bars on each arm, in gold, with a lion standing on its hind legs, in silver.
As this is a woman’s shield, it would probably be on a diamond shaped shield.

Azure, semee, of crosses, crosslet, fitchee, or, a lion rampant, argent.
An azure blue shield, covered, with little crosses, with bars on each arm, the ends of the arms being pointed, in gold, and having a lion standing on its hind legs, in silver.

A dragon’s head, in green, between two open wings, in gold, wearing round its neck, a collar, as a symbol of partition, in silver.

As can be seen some of the Coats of Arms were not identified with a particular branch of the Dalton family. Those families who are identified in No. 6, 7, and 8 above have all been the subject of research reports that have appeared in the Dalton Genealogical Society Journals.

This is the second in a series of extractions made by DGS Archivist, Michael Cayley from the records of the Catholic Record Society in London.
