Author: ghmyrtle Surnames: Hamilton Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.dale/27.29.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: The Mary Anne Hamilton who married Thomas Dale was the sister of my great-grandfather, Robert Hamilton of Scarva Street, Banbridge (c.1941 - c.1912) - the father of the Robert James Hamilton (1872 - 1924) that I mentioned further up this thread. Both Robert and Mary Anne (or Maryanne) were, I believe, children of another Robert Hamilton (c.1822 - 15 Feb 1885). I think that that last Robert Hamilton had a brother, Samuel Hamilton, who farmed at Dooghary (or Doughery, Duchery, etc.) just outside Banbridge. Can anyone shed any further light on the Hamilton family at Dooghary? Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
