• Married Name: circa 1807; Hamilton
• Note*: 23 April 1808; Queeston, Lincoln Co., Upper Canada; "On April 23, 1808, Robert Hamilton was residing in Queenston and wrote John Askin about "the sad Evil which befell (his) family in the course of (the) winter." His second wife Mary Herkimer Hamilton had died on January 26, 1808. He related that his "young folks have suffered a sad Loss but . . . God has given them a new constitution ... I hear regularly from my Boys in Schenectady. My Youngest is still with me, but goes to Niagara next month where he has already two Brothers. My little Girl will go to Kingston to her Aunts for sometime, till of fitt age to go to a publick school at Quebec ... I come now to the oldest of whose Marriage you perhaps have heard ... I ceased opposition & let him have his own way. The Girl he has married seems extremely well disposed to make him happy, & probably may be more successful than one taken from a higher Grade ... " from page 178 (190 of 202) of Detroit River Connections,the Hamilton Family, letter from Robert Hamilton of Queenston to his friend, John Askin of Sandwich.
  Note: This last bit would appear to refer to his elder son, Robert, who had married Mary Biggar. Her family was probably not at the level of the Jarvis family of York, so father had to reconcile himself to reality. (Dan Buchanan, May 13 2022)²
