Mother unknown.
DNA
Y-Chromosome Haplogroup I-L338
All male line descendants of this person will be the same haplogroup.
For an explanation of Y chromosome testing for genealogy purposes see Wikipedia at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genealogical_DNA_test#Y_chromosome_.28Y-DNA.29_testing
Note STR patterns can be used to predict a haplogroup wheresas specific SNP testing
accurately defines a haplogroup. The current approved haplotree can be found at
http://www.isogg.org/tree/index.html
and the current haplogroup designations against specific SNPs can be found at

as profile picture. And "Douglas Baron of Drumlanrig." http://www.roskildehistorie.dk/stamtavler/adel/Douglass/Drumlanrig.htm And William Douglas 1st Lord of Drumlanrig, possible father of Walter Hamilton of Darngaber (1392-1441).

In one instance of the Douglas Y-DNA: Y-DNA I-L338 for all of Walter Hamilton of Darngaber's male line? Possibly. (my early Great-grandfather, on my grandMother's side) Y-DNA is possibly I-Y6635 per Descendent of Walter Hamilton of Darngaber, (potentially one of my FTDNA matches). BOTH I-L338 (also known as I1a2a1a1a) and related I-Y6635 (also known as I1a3a1a1a1, Parent Branch: I-Y6624) are of Haplogroup I-M253 also known as I1 (a Y chromosome haplogroup). I-L338 is a well-known Haplogroup of the Douglases.
Walter Hamilton of Darngaber BIRTH 1392 • Cadzow, Lanarkshire, Scotland, DEATH 20 MAY 1441 • Trabzon, Trabzon, Turkey and his descendants were descended from the Douglases and not the Hamiltons.

(And it is not unreasonable to, at least, consider the uncle of Walter Hamilton (of Darngarber, not "of Cadzow"), John Hamilton of Fingalton as not being a Hamilton either as their Y-DNA has been compared. Assumptions to the contrary are very risky.)
