It does seem to be a curious lineage and I wonder where the sources are that started all this ......

Rodney, I edited your post and tagged it with 'euroaristo' and 'pre-1500' to get the attention of interested parties.  Whenever you post with regard to aristocracy, nobles and royals, you should tag it with euroaristo.

I did a quick search for information on Tilton-85; I see no reason why he was attached to Dalton in the first place, so I have removed the connection as requested.

Darlene,
Thank You!.
Neither URL under "Sources" contains a source. The first is to someone's tree posted to Ancestry which claims to have a source attached...but because the tree's owner made the tree private, no one can view the source or determine whether the source is a legitimate fact or a 3rd tree created - also without a source.

The second URL leads to a blank form on Ancestry. It doesn't even tantalize us with the promise of an attached source.

I coded the profile for the European Aristocrats Unsourced Profiles category.  Perhaps it will get attention in the next source-a-thon.
Michele, thanks for trying to look at the sources and mentioning it here.  I've gone in and looked for sources, located some, added them to the profile, and deleted the 'unsourced' template you had put on the profile.
