Hello Bob, Would your relations have a JAMES HAMILTON born around 1757 at Swag Castle in Scotland? He is the brother of my direct line of THOMAS HAMILTON born 1719. Their father was JOHNATHAN B,HAMILTON born 1671 and married OLITHIA O'CONNEL born 1673. Did you know one of Queen Mary's maids in waiting was a Hamilton? She had an affair with Lord Darnley and had a son. She suffocated the baby. Lord Drnley had her put to death. They made up a song about her. I have the story and the song on a zip disk. I have to find it since our move and my old conputer crashing. But it makes a wonderful read. Also I wish to ask if anyone here on the list has read the book, "HAMILTON and CANTRELLS" by Helen Hunt from Ashland Kentucky?I found some great historic stories there about some of my Hamilton lineage. Thanks for the time, Sincerely, Rita Faye (Hamilton) Hill
I have read many messages that mention specific "Hamilton" books. Are these books available to the public. How can one access the books or acquire a copy. Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks Shari, researching Hamilton's of Lincoln/Gaston County, NC -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, January 12, 2006 12:01 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [HAM] Re: audley hamilton Hello Bob, Would your relations have a JAMES HAMILTON born around 1757 at Swag Castle in Scotland?
