  1. I have a question. We are looking for my husbands Grandparents, we are trying to put together a family tree. His fathers name was Douglas Dalton he was born May 24, 1961 and died December 22, 2001. He died in Fort Smith, Arkansas. We don't know if he was originally from there? My husband doesn't know much about him at all.
    This came up in my report, I found Douglas Dalton but it doesn't really give any further information.

    1. Dear Crystal,

      Our Douglas Dalton was born in Delta, Utah 1952 and died 20 January 2006 Las Vegas, Nevada.

      There is an obituary for your Douglas Eugene Dalton Sr age 40 in the SW Times 2001-12-27. Fort Smith Arkansas. I think it mentions Tulsa, Oklahoma.

      Another document mentions Douglas Dalton on Boston Ave, Tulsa, Oklahoma ZIP 74119.

      Good luck, Andrea Conley conley@fiber.net
