John George Dalton (15 April 1876 – 8 March 1923) was an Australian rules footballer who played for the Fitzroy Football Club in the Victorian Football League (VFL).[1]
The son of John James Dalton (1849-1890),[2] and Margaret Dalton (1857-1902), née Manning,[3] John George Dalton was born at Prahran, Victoria on 15 April 1876.
He married Clare Margaret O'Neill (1883-1940) in 1912.[4] They had two children.
Making his senior debut in 1896,[5] the year before the inaugural VFL season, Dalton was a half back flanker in Fitzroy's 1898 premiership team. He missed out on Fitzroy's premiership the following season due to injury.
He died at Sandringham, Victoria on 8 March 1923.[6]
