Thanks, Elwin! Now I can stop wondering why my great-aunt Harriet Fulton
had the middle name of Hamilton. :-)

Charlotte:

According to the John Grenham site the name Hamilton is:

“Very numerous: throughout Ulster, extending into Leinster and
Connacht. An important Scottish name which came in the Plantation of
Ulster, 17 cent. The town of Manorhamilton in Leitrim is indicative of
their extensive holdings. The name sometimes stands for Hamill, q.v.
The gaelicised version is Hamaltún. SI & IF”.

https://www.johngrenham.com/findasurname.php?surname=Hamilton

Looking at the 1901 census for Tyrone there were 1101 people of that
surname, so very common.

Using Hamilton (or any other surname) as a middle name was/is a common
Presbyterian custom. It could often be the mother’s maiden name but
not always. Sometimes it was someone the family respected, eg the
local Teacher or Minister.

In researching the Weir family of the Parish of Derryloran, I've found
several Hamiltons and wonder how they are connected.  Some of the Weirs have
even included Hamilton in the names of their children.  Were the Hamiltons
an important family there?
