William (Black Bill) Hamilton B: 1839 was my ggreat grandfather. He had immigrated from Ireland with his family (8children) around 1850 to the Bruce County, Ontario area. I do not know his spouses name and only have the 3 children's names. William Hamilton b:1876 ( my greatgrandfather ), Joseph b:1869, Archibald B:unknown and they also had a sister named Elizabeth that married in Ontario to a Robert Thompson. These 3 immigrated to the Chilliwack area of BC around 1876 - 1888. If you think there is a connection we could share info, it would be nice to find out more...
