Enid Hope Dalton was the illegitimate daughter of Kathleen Harriet Dalston. Family speculation is that after Enid Hope was registered in Chesterton early in 1891 by the time of the census in April she is living not with her mother, Kathleen Harriet Dalton, who was a governess in Norfolk, but with a family known to Frank Dalton, Kathleen’s brother.
