By Charles William Hamilton

This short book is a memorandum of known records concerning the Hamilton family with some early history and genealogy. Learn the fascinating details of the Hamiltons who were among the Scotch prisoners on board the ship in 1651, that was sent to Massachusetts by order of the English government. John Hamilton was doubtless one of those prisoners sent over before the John and Sara shipment. He is seen in Charlestown where, in 1658, he had a small grant of land. We are shown his descendants and related families
