Hello, I am looking for any information about Alexander Hamilton who died April 12th 1889 aged 86 years also Martha ?Parks? who died April 8th 1875 aged 60 years. They have a gravestone at Second Presbyterian Church, Ballybay. Children were :Thomas (went to Austrailia), Jane, John (went to US), Mary Anne, Alexander, William (went to US), Robert (went to Austrailia), Margaret, and Joseph James. Any help at all would be wonderful.

Amy:
The 1862 Griffiths Valuation head of household listing shows that Alexander Hamilton was living in Clogher townland.

Amy,
I also descend from Hamiltons of Ballybay. Mine ended up in Canada. I'd like to share information with you. Believe we must be related somehow. Please contact me directly (email address below).
