Donald Ramsay WWI Draft Registration Card Okanogan County, WA. October 1918 |
|
Donald Ramsay's WWI Draft Registration Card, Tonasket, Okanogan County, WA October 1918. Donald was an older brother of Lillian Mae Ramsay who was the mother of Elsie (Galloway) Hamilton. Donald lists his nearest relative as his mother, Mary A. Ramsay. Donald's late father was James Ramsay. Donald had two older brothers, George and John. It's very interesting that Donald lists his present employer as John Ramsay of Lake Saskatoon, Alberta and that is also the address he gives for his mother, Mary A. Ramsay! Lake Saskatoon is now a ghost town way up in the Grande Prairie county of Northern Alberta. The interesting thing is that this is the area that their younger sister, Lillian moved to with her second husband, William Fee, after their marriage in December of 1907. It seems reasonable to assume that the Fee's introduced the Ramsay brothers to the Grande Prairie, AB area. I'm assuming that Donald was farming his brother John's land near Wauconda, WA for him in his absence. Donald gives the legal description of the land he is farming as the 'location' of his employer on his registration card. |

Dunn/Hamilton Relationship [N. Tyrone Dunn Families] |
|
This document is written by James Dunn Laird. James is a researcher for the Dunn families in Northern Ireland. In working to establish a connection between Dunn families he had a genetic test done on a patriarch of one of those families only to find out that that man (in his eighties) is not genetically related to the Dunn's paternally but is descended from a Hamilton ancestor. This man, Herbert Dunn is an exact genetic match (37/37 markers) with our Hamilton family Y-DNA line (as profiled by Glen Maurice Hamilton's DNA). |

Duron Hamilton Story - History of Southeastern Washington - 1906 |
|
This is a PDF of the a hand written transcription of a profile of Duron Hamilton from the work, An Illustrated History of Southeastern Washington, published in 1906. Duron was the oldest child of Supplina P. Hamilton and Sarah Jane Sumpter. One of many interesting things in the document is a mention of Supplina Hamilton having been a 1st. Deputy of Joe Meek in Oregon City, Oregon in 1856. Joe Meek was a famous Oregon pioneer and was the 1st US Marshal in Oregon Territory. He served with Supplina Hamilton as a member of the 1st Regiment of the Oregon Mounted Volunteers in the Yakima Indian War of 1855 & 1856 and attained the rank of Major. |

Elizabeth Hamilton McCan Photo and Marriage Info |
|
Elizabeth (Hamilton) McCan was the sister of Supplina Hamilton. She was known here as 'Aunt Lisy.' It appears that the caption at the top of the print on the back states her name and relationship as 'Aunt Elizabeth Cross sister to S. Hamilton.' This is a bit perplexing as we don't know of Elizabeth having been married to a Cross. Her sister Roxa married Able Cross in 1837. Elizabeth is thought to have married a McCan. |

Elsie L. Galloway (Hamilton) as an unmarried daughter of Charles Galloway - 1920 US Census Spokane, WA |
|
Elsie Galloway (soon to be married to Maurice L. Hamilton the son of Judd Hamilton and grandson of Supplina Hamilton) is listed with her father and step-mother in the 1920 Census in Spokane, WA. Elsie's father lists his profession as 'Miner.' They lived on 2nd Ave (thought to be East) in Spokane. Elsie's future husband, Maurice, was helping his mother Annettie at home in Nespelem, WA at this time. It is thought that Charlie Galloway had recently moved this family to Spokane from Nespelem. When Maurice and Elsie married they went to the Courthouse in Omak, WA Okanagon County. |

Glenn F & Retha (Hamilton) Family - 1920 US Census Ewan Precinct, Whitman County, WA - Page 1 |
|
Glenn F Hamilton and wife Retha in the 1920 Census. They are a young married couple in Whitman County, Washington with their firstborn child Hugh at nine months old. Glenn was the son of Frank Hamilton the grandson of Supplina Hamilton. Now here is something interesting: Neighbors to Glenn and Retha (four households aways and listed on the next census ledger page) is the Hiram W. and Emily M. Judd Family. The Judds are older and their oldest son Walter is Glenn and Retha's age. The Judds also have a son named Glenn. Hiram (and Heman) are old Judd family names. Supplina Hamilton had an uncle Heman Judd (and we believe an Hiram also). Supplina also had a Heman and a Hiram as older brothers. Anyway, does anyone know if this Judd family (the only one in Whitman county in 1920) is related? I'll post the next page of the census ledger for all to see. |

Glenn F & Retha Hamilton's Neighbors: Hiram W. and Emily M. Judd Family - 1920 US Census Ewan Precinct, Whitman County WA - Page 2 |
|
The Hiram Judd family is living four households away from the young couple, Glenn F and Retha Hamilton, in Whitman County, WA in the 1920 US Census. This Judd family has no known relation to the Hamiltons. Yet, because of the fact that both the first and last names (Hiram Judd) are established Judd family names and that both of Hiram's parents were born in New York (though he was born in Wisconsin) leads me to suspect they may have been distant cousins. Supplina Judd, Sr.'s had at least one son that remained in NY state (Heman Judd). Could it be that this Hiram Judd is one of Heman's decendants? It's possible that Hiram could have been a son of Suplina 'Squire' Judd, Jr. (who came to Illinois with the Hamilton's from New York). Only further research will reveal it. If anyone, has evidence or opinions... please let me know! |
