Cork / Re: Birth/Baptism - John Hamilton - Cork
« on: Monday 27 June 11 23:53 BST (UK) »
Hi, Im also researching Hamiltons in Cork but from an earlier period. The name and that he states his father as a scot may suggest a service type career like the RIC or coastguard or the lighthouses. Given that he became a sailor might imply one of the latter. These families moved around a lot in ireland but also between Ireland and the UK. Some of the station registers are now availlable on line from kew. Hope this may be of some help to you
