Reverend Hamilton Paul was born in Dailly, around 1773. He died in 1854, in Peebleshire, where he was the minister of three parishes, Glenholme, Broughton, and Kilbucho. I cannot find out whether he was married, married with children, or remained single. He was editor of the Ayr Advertiser until 1816, and helped set up the first Burn's suppers, so may have been a friend of the poet. Can anyone help, please?
