Family oral tradition says Frank was an only child and orphaned early. Frank also appears in the 1895 NJ State Census (Upper Pittsgrove) as part of the Tarpine (Tarpino? Tarpins?) household, which is 2 households away from another William & Mary Hamilton group w/other children. However, I do not believe this is the right William & Mary. Frank died in 1938. Unable to find birth, marriage, or death confirmation for anyone in the 1850-1900 timeframe, or any early/parent info on William T. & Mary Jane. Had my Dad's DNA tested with FTDNA (highly recommended), but no helpful matches have also been tested....yet! Any help greatly appreciated!
