Hi,looking for as much information as possible to add to what I already have about the Hamiltons of Ardrishaig area.
Daniel Hamilton b.1872 was a fisherman and possibly a grocer too.
He was married to my paternal grandfather's eldest sister
Mary Jane Reid.
Thank you.

Look for birth and death on Scotland’s People website. Free to search, but you’ll have to purchase credits to download documents

It would help if you gave an idea of what you already know - to save people looking unnecessarily for info
