Biography

Robert was born in 1868. He apparently had no middle name. His parents were named Andrew Hamilton and Janet Scott.

The were many men with the same name; no middle names or other means to tell them apart.

He married Isabella Clezy on 17 Dec 1891. Did they have children? Unknown.

Records show the burial of a Robert Hamilton at Lesmahagow, Lanarkshire in 1906. But was it this person? Again there is no identifying information... no middle name, not even date of birth is shown, making it useless for purposes of identifcation.

Research notes

This census record looks promising. 1871 Census.

Name Relation Status Sex Age Occupation Birth Place
Andrew Hamilton Head M 67 Retired Farmer Lesmahagow, Lanarkshire
Janet Scott Hamilton Wife F 46 Retired Farmer Wife Lesmahagow, Lanarkshire
John Hamilton Son M 15 Scholar Lesmahagow, Lanarkshire
Christina Hamilton Daughter F 14 Lesmahagow, Lanarkshire
Thomas Hamilton Son M 12 Scholar Lesmahagow, Lanarkshire
William Hamilton Son M 9 Scholar Lesmahagow, Lanarkshire
Janet Hamilton Daughter F 7 Scholar Lesmahagow, Lanarkshire
George Hamilton Son M 5 Lesmahagow, Lanarkshire
Robert Hamilton Son M 3 Lesmahagow, Lanarkshire
David Hamilton Son M 5 Mo Lesmahagow, Lanarkshire

This is the same family in 1881, I believe. It looks like Andrew has passed away and Janet previously retired has returned to farming. I expect John's occupation should read Farm Steward. I don't know which child the granddaughter belongs to. Will try and find out. I will look for a death record for Andrew Hamilton too. 1881 Census
