He married Mary Arts on June 4, 1913 in Carroll, Iowa. They were the parents of Grace Inez, William, and Charles. Nov 21, 1918 - Carroll Times - Robert Hamilton died at his home at eleven o'clock Tuesday night after making a struggle for life for several days. While it was known Tuesday that his condition was critical, relatives and friends were hoping that a turn would soon come for the better. "Bob" as he was known by all his friends, took sick Monday night, November 11. It was while attending the peace parade that evening that he felt chilly and cold to such an extent that he could not remain for the evening's celebration. He was taken with influenza, but by Thursday the temperature had left him and he assisted his wife in giving their little son, Charles, a mustard bath, as he too was sick with influenza and needed constant attention. Soon afterwards he was taken with chills and although he took to his bed immediately he continued to grow worse and pneumonia developed within a short time. Everything that doctors and loving hands could do was done in an attempt to save his ife, but it proved to be in vain. "Bob" was a congenial man who made friends readily and kept them. After finishing high school he took a course in plumbing in Minneapolis and afterwards opened a shop in this city. During the time he was in business he built up a large trade and won a reputation for himself for excellent workmanship and honest dealings. He was united in marriage to Miss Mae Arts in this city on June 4th, 1913. Two children have been born to them, Inez Grace, and Charles. The little family were very happy together and the sympathy of the entire community goes out to the wife and the little ones who are left to mourn for the one who is gone. Besides his wife and children he leaves his father, Charles Hamilton, who has been in poor health for some time and is now under treatment at St. Anthony's Hospital. He also leaves one brother, John, of Omaha. He was a member of St. Joseph's church, of the Knights of Columbus and the order of Forresters. The requiem high mass was held at St. Joseph's church this morning and burial was made from the home immediately afterwards. The dreaded Influenza is again taking heavy toll in this community, three deaths having occurred in Carroll within the past three days, and a large number of new cases being reported in the city. There is every reason to fear that it will again become necessary to apply the quarantine regulations, though every precaution is being taken to prevent a further spread of the disease otherwise. R.J. Hamilton's little son, Charles, is reported to be ill with the same disease, the Quigley children are also on the sick list, and Emil Fischer is also reported to be seriously ill. These are cases in the same families wherein deaths have recently occurred, and give evidence of the high contagion.
