General Notes: Husband - Andrew Hamilton


His parentage is said to have been kept by him a secret from his contemporaries, and at one time he went by the name of Trent. He first came to Virginia, and as steward of a plantation married the widow of its owner, and by her influence began the practice of law, and after his removal to Philadelphia, became attorney-general and also speaker of the Assembly. His most noted achievement was his defense of John Peter Zenger, the New York printer.
