Author: Luther A. Ingersoll (1908)

    CHARLES S. DALES, for years a well-known citizen of Santa Monica, was born
in the State of New York, September 20, 1853. For some years as a young man he
followed railroad telegraphy. He married at Middleport, White county, Illinois,
Miss Dora, a daughter of D. W. Galloway, a successful farmer. She died, leaving
two sons, E. V. and John B. Dales, prosperous grocery merchants of Santa Monica,
doing business under the firm name of Dales Brothers, brief sketches of whom
appear elsewhere in this volume. Mr. Dales came to California in 1886 and spent
one year in Santa Cruz. In 1887 he came to Santa Monica and for a time clerked
in the clothing store of C. B. Van Every. He was later elected City Clerk of
Santa Monica and subsequently served as Constable. He is (1908) serving his
second term as City Assessor of Santa Monica. The present Mrs. Dales was Miss
Anna Felts of Bellville, Ill. She has one daughter, Marion.

people.
