A Veteran Islander.

MR W. H. HAMILTON SENR.

One of the good old pioneers who have ' borne tbe beat and burden of the day' is Mr W. H. Hamilton Senr, with whom a representative of this paper recently had a short chat. On Wednesday next Mr Hamilton will have reached his ninetieth birthday, and he can still see to read without the aid of glasses. The veteran first landed at Point Marsden, K.I., in Ostober, 1837, he being one of the boat's crew that pulled ashore from the ship Catherine [sic] Stewart Forbes. He was then, although an A.B., only 18 years of age. The ship carried 400 immigrants and had arrived after a four months' passage. Mr Hamilton recollects that at that time the city of Adelaide was an assemblage of huts and Government House (then occupied by Governor Sir James H. Fisher) a structure of reeds. The subject of this necessarily brief sketch left South Australia in 1843 and went to India for four years. He was trading pa the coast of Cochin-China before the French took possession. He first took up land on K.I. in 1867; portion of which he has held ever since, and was one of the first to introduce the shares' system of farming on the Island, An observant man always Mr Hamilton, during his travels, stored away a rich and varied fund of information, which he is willing to impart to attentive listeners. His views on the greatest topics of the day are broad and vigorous, and he keeps himself well posted up with the latest news. He believes that there is a prosperous time in store for Kangaroo Island, although be acknowledges the fact, that it will take some time for the capabilities of the Island to be fully realised.

It is likely that he was NOT aboard the Duke of York, as some claim, but rather on a later ship in 1837. See Dorothy Heinrich's article in the Kangaroo Island Pioneers' Association Newsletter No 51, February 2013.

==================================

One of the seamen on board the DUKE OF YORK was William Holmes Hamilton, son of Richard Hamilton who came to South Australia onboard KATHERINE STEWART FORBES in 1837.

=========================================

William had just turned sixteen. It is not surprising that he became a sailor, as his uncle William Read Holmes was a Cinque Ports Pilot, his aunt Sarah Holmes married a pilot, while his great uncles, Captain John Hamilton and Luke Smithett were men of the sea. His brothers John and Richard were also seamen. In fact, anybody born in Dover could hardly be unaffected by the sea. An obituary notice in Adelaide Observer, Saturday 13 January 1917, is recorded for William Holmes Hamilton, a seamen on board the DUKE OF YORK which arrived in 1836. He was the son of Richard Hamilton who came to South Australia onboard KATHERINE STEWART FORBES in 1837.

OBITUARY.

The death occurred at Adelaide on Christmas Day of Mr. W. H. Hamilton, an old resident of Kingscote. He was 94 years of age, and arrived at Kangaroo Island in the Duke of York, when that vessel made its first voyage to Australia from England. Mr. Hamilton spent a few years at sea, and then settled at Kangaroo Island, where he had resided for the past 50 years. He left two daughters, Mesdames Whittle and Gobell; and two sons - Messrs. W. H. and A. H. Hamilton, of Kingscote.
