I am trying to find the parents for Jonathan Hamilton b: 1831-32 in Cumberland MD May have been a school teacher about 1850 until he resigned and chased the CA gold rush then went to Australia in abt 1853. His father may have owned a plantation in the area. Dave _________________________________________________________________ Need a new place to rent, share or buy?

I would guess that he would be one of Connie Beachys Hamilton family. My Hamiltons were all miners, and didn't immigrate til 1869, and no Jonathans in the family. Ruth
