He was born in Granville, Hampden County, Mass., on April 18, 1801 and married Miss Sarah Parsons, of the same place, March 9, 1824. His ancestors on his father’s side were Scotch-Irish, on his mothers' side English, but both families for several generations had been residents of Massachusetts. He had two brothers and three sisters. One of the latter being Mrs. Mila A Hatch, whose portrait appears in this work. Mr. H. with his family came to Michigan in 1835, arriving in Homer in June of that year. They came with the Frederick R Hatch family, and the journey from Detroit, which was made with two ox teams, occupied a week. A Mr. Taylor, from Long Meadow, Mass., accompanied them with a one-horse wagon. It was a beautiful summer's day when the little party, as they came over The Concord Road hill, saw for the first time the little hamlet which was to be their home. Mr. H. was a natural mechanic, and finding that a stone mason was needed in the new settlement. Adopted that as his trade and on the day following his arrival here commenced laying the foundation for Mr. Barney's store building. In the spring of '36 the family moved into and occupied for some time the Barney log house, which is shown elsewhere. In 1837 Mr. H. purchased of the government the desirable farm south of this village, now owned by T .H. Janes, built him a house and moved into the same the following year. Mr. Hamilton was an active member of the M.E. Church from early manhood; he was one of the first of the Homer Society and was a steward and class leader in the church for many years. He took an active part in erecting the old wooden structure, which for many years occupied the site of the present church edifice. The itinerant ministers of early days always found a welcome under his roof, He was a noble and upright man. In politics he was a Jeffersonian Democrat. He died on his farm south of this village, after a long and painful illness, March 31 1851: His Wife, one of the kindest and most devoted mothers, following him to the world beyond, July 21.'64.
