Thomas Dalton (abolitionist)
Thomas Dalton (1794–1883) was a free African American raised in Massachusetts〔Dorman, Frank. ''Twenty Families of Color.'' Boston: New England Historical Society, 1998.〕 who was dedicated to improving the lives of people of color. He was active, at times with his wife Lucy Lew Dalton, in the founding or ongoing activities of local educational organizations, including the Massachusetts General Colored Association, New England Anti-Slavery Society, Boston Mutual Lyceum, and Infant School Association, and campaigned for school integration, which was achieved in 1855.
Lucy and Thomas Dalton strongly believed that integrating schools and improving education for the colored children of Boston was the best avenue "to remove the prejudice which exists against the people of color."〔Paul, Susan "Memoir of James Jackson: The Attentive and Obedient Scholar, Who Died in Boston, October 31, 1833, Age Six Years and Eleven Months"〕
