Historical memoir of the family of Dalton of the Kingdom of Ireland, by Michael N. Dalton  p.25
  This paper is founded on manuscript notes left by an uncle of D.S. Dalton of Sheffield.  It lists the family of Dalton in Ireland, as recorded in documents in the Archives of the Herald's Office in Ireland.  The family is of Norman French descent and in the time of Henry II, went to Ireland.  Sir Walter De Aliton was given land in Westmeath and became the Governor thereof.  His wife Jane founded a nunnery.  His son, Sir Phillip, founded an Abbey and his descendants preserved their territories against all invaders.
In the Civil Wars, the head of the family was stripped of his possessions, but given a small estate in Connaught.  They raised a body of horse for King James II and intermarried with many other old Irish families of Norman descent.
One branch of the family settled in Waterford, but they too forfeited their property in the Civil Wars.  Another branch settled in Tipperary and hold their estates there to this day.  Their present descendant is Oliver Dalton of Rathconrath.  They are allowed to use the Coat of Arms of Counts of the German Empire, namely Azure, a Lyon rampant Argent.
