Lewis Dalton, father of the outlaws, was from Jackson County, Missouri. He was a saloon keeper in Kansas City, Kansas, when he married Adeline Younger, an aunt of Cole and Jim Younger. By 1882, the family was living in the Indian Territory, now the state of Oklahoma. A few years later, they had settled down in Coffeyville in southeastern Kansas. Lewis and Adeline Dalton had a total of 15 children, two of whom died in infancy.

Famous quotes containing the word beginnings:

    The beginnings of altruism can be seen in children as early as the age of two. How then can we be so concerned that they count by the age of three, read by four, and walk with their hands across the overhead parallel bars by five, and not be concerned that they act with kindness to others?
    Neil Kurshan (20th century)

    [Many artists], even the greatest ones, are not sure of their own existence. So they search for proof, they judge, they condemn. It strengthens them, it is the beginnings of existence. They are alone!
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    Those newspapers of the nation which most loudly cried dictatorship against me would have been the first to justify the beginnings of dictatorship by somebody else.
    Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
