Letter: Thomas Hamilton to his Brother Attorney James Hamilton in Carlisle, 1793
When Thomas Hamilton (c. 1767-1829) wrote this letter he had been in America for eight years. He was living in Greensburg, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania and was appointed the Prothonotary of the county that year. He would move to Kittanning, Pennsylvania in 1809 where he lived until his death in 1829. He was a very religious man and never married.
