SOUTH AFRICA and ZIMBABWE |
|
Data for South Africa is rather sparse but through the files of the LDS, War Graves Commission in England and a current Johannesburg directory there is assembled a data bank of some 100 names that include parents, spouses, etc. A rather large settlement of D'Altons and Daltons exist in South Africa. Some who use the apostrophe in their name are believed to be descended from the Irish or French branches of Daltons, and others originated in England. Only two records are available for Zimbabwe at this time and are posted at the end of the South African data
Included in this file are births and marriages in Capetown and Natal;
South African Service Casualties; and Johannesburg Directory Listings.
To search this file, use the Edit/Find function of your browser.
It is the onus of the user to verify data.
If you have accumulated
Dalton data from South Africa we would be pleased to post it. Contact
for more information.
