Barnabas Hamilton

[fraser1]

Can anyone help with more information on Barnabas Hamilton who was born 10/4 1830, married to Margaret Stevenson 22/9/1849.  I haven't been able to find his death cert.  His parents were John Hamilton and Catherine Fras(z)er but no further information on them.

Thanks in anticipation

What is the last census you have him on and where was he living at that time

[CaroleW]

He was still alive in 1901 - indexed as Bernard

[CaroleW]

Deaths on SP - both 1891 and 1901 show birthyear 1828

Using only surname Hamilton - male - birthyear 1828 +- 1yr - County East Lothian shows one match

Thanks everyone.

I can't find anything on SP for his death.  I have census for 1861 where he was living in Prestonkirk.
His wife Margaret died in 1873 so he may well have married again.  Did you get this from a census and who did he marry and when?

1881/91/1901 censuses all show his wife as Agnes

Did you view the entry I mentioned above - I forgot to say that it was between 1901-1911
