Early County Georgia census: In 1870, Catherine Slayton and children are enumerated as "mulatto", while Alexander Slayton is listed as "single" and "white."
This person is among the Early county Georgia census households of Catherine Slayton/Daniel, and is thought to be fathered by attorney Alexander Slaton, whose name in reversed in the 1900 census as a separate entry adjacent to Catherine Daniel.
Alexander and Catherine could not have married legally in Georgia at the time, therefore this is primarily oral history.
It appears that the younger members in the household of Catherine, presumed to be her children, used the surname Slaton or Slayton in vital records as adults.

Dates approximate, based on census and court records for his estate.
Family story is that he committed suicide on the day before he was to be married, so might be unmarked, if here at all.
