SUFFOLK

There are approximately 450 surnames to search in the Suffolk file. Variants of Dalton have been retained. Very few Daltons appear in the 1881 Census perhaps because of a change in boundaries but there were many more Suffolk born Daltons in other shires/counties in 1881.
Americans might note the use of "True" as a given and a middle name, a name found in American Daltons.

Slater for Early Marriage data and to Michael Cayley, DGS Archivist for the Burial and Miscellaneous records. It is the onus of the user to verify the data.
