How the Scots-Irish Came to America
This PDF file is a leaflet produced by the Ulster Scots Agency. " An estimated quarter of a million people emigrated from the north of Ireland to America through the 18th century, most of them of Scottish Presbyterian stock whose ancestors had moved to Ulster during the Plantation years of the 17th century." All the current evidence points to our Hamilton family having emigrated to the US from Ulster in the early to mid 18th century as well. (posted by Glen)

James M. Hamilton - Grave. Cherry Grove Cemetary, Mason County, Illinois
This links to a page noting burials in the Cherry Grove Cemetary in Mason County, Illinois. James M. Hamilton was the twin brother of William McCord Hamilton. They were born in 1834 in Morgan County, Illinois to John and Altha (Judd) Hamilton. One of their older brothers was Supplina Hamilton. James along with his brother William served in Company C 85th Illinois Infantry in the Civil War. James rose from Fifth Sargeant to Second and then to First Lieutenant. He was captured by the Confederates at the battle of Peach Tree Creek, Georgia having fought galantly in the war. In the book, "History of the 85th Illinois Volunteers - Illinois Volunteer Infantry" by
Henry J. Aten on page 376 we read: "SECOND LIEUTENANT JAMES M. HAMILTON was born in Morgan county, Illinois, in 1834, and was an unmarried farmer when he enlisted from Mason City, in Mason county [on Aug 27, 1862]. He was chosen fifth sergeant at the organization of the company, served through Kentucky and Tennessee campaigns, and was promoted second lieutenant October 7, 1863. He participated in all the campaigns in which the regiment was engaged until captured in the battle of Peach Tree creek, Georgia, July 19, 1864, was exchanged before the close of the war. He was mustered out with the regiment and returned to Mason City, Ill., where he died in about 1874." Actually, it appears that James was promoted again to 1st Lieutenant on January 1st 1864 and mustered out of the army on June 5, 1865. James died on February 20, 1869 and was buried here in the Cherry Grove Cemetary in Mason County. He is believed to have died unmarried. James twin brother William named a son after his brother James and father-in-law, Edward Porter. James Edward Hamilton was the father of Edward Hamilton and the Grandfather of Clarence Hamilton.

Text from Nathaniel S. Haynes, History of the Disciples in Illinois 1819-1914, pages 324 - 329. This online edition © 1997, James L. McMillan. It talks about John A.

John Hamilton and his six sons: Nelson, Madison County, NY
Joyce Hamilton susepcts the John Hamilton known to have lived in Nelson, Madison County, NY arriving in 1796 was our John Hamilton's father. This is making a number of assumptions including that John, the husband of Altha Judd, fathers' name was also John. Anyway, there is no proof here but a lead to track down. (posted by Glen)

John Hamilton, Sr. - from Massachusetts to Nelson, Madison County, NY - 1796
This link is to a page from the work, "History of Nelson, NY: FROM OUR COUNTY AND ITS PEOPLE A DESCRIPTIVE AND BIOGRAPHICAL RECORD OF MADISON COUNTY, NEW YORK EDITED BY: JOHN E. SMITH - THE BOSTON HISTORY COMPANY, PUBLISHERS 1899" that again mentioned John Hamilton, Sr. having arrived in approximately 1796 from Massachusetts to Nelson Township in Madison, County, NY. From another history of this region we know he had six sons. It's possible (though definitely not at all proven) that this John Hamilton, Sr. was the father of John Hamilton, Jr. the husband of Altha Judd and the father of Supplina Hamilton. (posted by Glen)

Anyway feedback as to what I could do to improve it in general would be great appreciated! (posted by Jon Patrick Hamilton)

Judd Hamilton and the Furies?! Eastern Washington Rock n' Roll History.
This HistoryLink.org ('The Online Encyclopedia Of Washington State History') article chronicles the memoriable rock and roll bands with Eastern Washington roots. Danny and 'Hamilton, Joe Frank and Reynolds' are featured, ofcourse... but 'Judd Hamilton and the Furies?' Yes, it's there... and that's one wrinkle in family history I definiately had missed. They apparently recorded under the local 'Julian Records' label. (posted by Glen)

Location of the Hamilton School House - Union Flat Creek, Whitman County, WA
According to Norman Hamilton, this is the school house that was on the southern edge of Supplina and Jane Hamilton's property on Union Flat Creek in Whitman County, WA. It is gone now but for the old school teachers house (that is now abandoned and used for farm storage). UPDATE: 7/26/2006. The location of the school at the south western corner of Supplina Hamilton's property (the exact location shown on this map) was confirmed by the "Atlas of Whitman County Washington" the 1895 and 1910 versions. See the Docs sections for both of these atlas pages. In the 1895 Atlas we see that the property belongs to S. Hamilton. In the 1910 version we see that their is a school in the exact spot marked on the Google map image on this link. UPDATE: 1/1/2008. The school, known as the Hamilton School District #111, was mentioned in the book, "Whitman County: From Abbiville to Zion," by Edith E Erickson (1985). The school merged with the Endicott school district in 1935, (posted by Glen)
