Dexter Stratton was the paternal grandfather of Megan Pace, the great-grandfather of Charlie and Liam Pace and the great-great grandfather of Liam's daughter Megan. ("Greatest Hits") , (Official Lost Podcast transcript/May 21, 2007)

Charlie told Shannon that his grandfather in England had taught him how to fish ("Walkabout"). It is unclear whether this is a reference to Dexter's son, or Charlie's paternal grandfather.

A ring bearing his initials has been passed on to the first born of each generation in the Stratton family, inspiring the Pace brothers to name their band Drive Shaft.

Trivia

Dexter Stratton is actually a combination of two names (Ricky "Rick" Stratton and Dexter Stuffins) from the 1980s sitcom Silver Spoons. [1]
