In 1841 he lived at Blantyre parish, in Lanarkshire, Scotland. He was a brother in law of John Scott and a fireman on the steamship Thistle. Michael migrated to New Zealand and supposedly died at Petone, New Zealand on December 14, 1912. Any information on Michael Hamilton, or his family would be greatly appreciated. jamesmgray@bigpond.com Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
