I know that he married a Carrie Arizona Jeffries and they had 3 children Pauline, Charles and Rex. He is listed in the 1930 census for Chicago Illinois as being 48 years old and his wife being 46 years old. He was born in Chase,Rice Co., Kansas on August 18, 1881. He died in 1971. His father was Charles Clarence Riggs born Feb 23, 1860 in Buford, Highland Co., OH and his mother was Sarah Catherine Proffitt born on April 18, 1863 in TN. They were married on October 30, 1880. I am really interested in getting more information on Daltons descendants - children and grandchildren. Dalton was a prominent business man working with a well known battery company. They census of 1930 says $50,000 was their value and Carrie had a lodging house. If any one can help on the descendants info or on the lodging house or battery company I would greatly appreciate it.
