Biography
ALEX WHITE HAMILTON is the President and Superintendent of the Ann Arbor Water Company. He was born in Salem, this county, March 6, 1848, and is a son of Warren Hamilton, a native of Massachusetts, and who was born at Pelham in 1816. For many years after coming to Michigan he was Secretary and Treasurer of the Mutual Fire Insurance Company of Washtenaw County, and held a prominent place in the confidence of the people. He was a son of Joel Hamilton, of Scotch descent. Col. Warren Hamilton, the father of our subject, was Colonel of a regiment of State militia of Michigan, and hence the title.
The mother of our subject was Miss Anna Waldron. She was born in the town of Romulus, Seneca County, N. Y., in 1817. She was a daughter of Richard Waldron, who was a lineal descendant of Baron Resolve Waldron, of Holland, and who had the first land grant in the city of New York, given by the king of Holland for services rendered to his native country. Warren Hamilton came to Michigan when only eighteen years old, and settled in Salem Township, where he carried on general farming for a number of years. He was married after coming here, at about the age of twenty-one. He then removed to Ann Arbor, and there became Secretary and Treasurer of the Mutual Fire Insurance Company. His death occurred in 1877, and he left a widow and six children, four of whom are still living.
Alex. W. Hamilton is the fifth in order of birth of the family. He spent his youth on the farm and received the rudiments of his education at the district school. He entered the High School at Ann Arbor, and completed the course in two years, after which he entered the Classical Department of the University of Michigan, graduating in 1871, and taking the degree of Bachelor of Arts. In 1873 the degree of A. M. was conferred The succeeding year he devoted to study in the law course in the University of Michigan, and was admitted to the bar in 1872 and commenced the practice of his profession in the Athens of the West. In 1881 he was made the Secretary of the Toledo and Ann Arbor Railroad, and during his term of office was Attorney for the road. Resuming his law practice, he was instrumental in organizing numerous business enterprises, among others the water company, which was organized in 1885, and under this organization our subject is now President and Superintendent. Under his executive management much has been accomplished. Twenty-live miles of water mains have been laid in the city, and the works are among the most perfectly constructed in the State. This has not only required time on the part of Mr. Hamilton, but also large investments in money.
Aside from the interests above mentioned, Mr. Hamilton is one of the Directors of the Michigan Furniture Company, which employs from eighty to one hundred men. The fine tract of land comprising forty-five acres, in the southern part of the city, is laid out as an addition by Hamilton, Rose & Sheehan, the center of which is a park comprising eight and one-half acres, donated to the city and called Hamilton Park. Mr. Hamilton owns the fine building known as the Hamilton Block, which is situated on the corner of Huron and Fourth Streets.
October 3, 1877, Mr. Hamilton was united in marriage with Miss May Hale, a daughter of Lorenzo D. Hale, of Ann Arbor. She is a native of Jackson County, this State. Mrs. Hamilton is an attractive woman, who presides with dignity and elegance over their pleasant home. Our subject is a stanch Republican, and an influential man in the State. He has been a member of the Presbyterian Church for twenty years past, and is one of its Trustees. Mr. Hamilton cast his first vote for U. S. Grant, and his last for Benjamin F. Harrison.

Title: The Peirce Family of the Old Colony or The Lineal Descendants of Abraham Peirce. By Ebenezer W. Peirce of Freetown, Mass. Published 1870
Pages 384 and 385
"Abigail Peirce. Daughter of George Peirce and wife Sarah Peirce; m. John Hoar, of Middleboro, now Lakeville, and they removed to Pelham, Mass. John Hoar served in the patriot forces in Rhode Island in the war of the Revolution, and was in the company commanded by Capt. Henry Peirce. He was a son of Robert Hoar and wife Rachel Hoskins, grandson of Samuel Hoar and wife Rebecca Peirce. He received a provision in the last will of Major Peter Hoar, of Middleboro, who was his half brother.
John Hoar and wife Abigail Peirce had:
Calvin, married Betsey _________
Abigail, married _______ Hamilton
Rachel, married _______ Hamilton
Judith,
Harriet,
Sarah,
Evelyn Leonard,
Philip, married Harriet Peirce (?)
Hermon,
Washington,
Edmund,
William,
Eddie,
For what is here given concerning the family of John Hoar, the writer is indebted to Miss Abiah Peirce [Abiah Peirce, born Jan. 27, 1792, dau. of Hermon Peirce and Rachel Hoar]."
Note- not listed are Mercia, Adah, or Nelson. Her "Eddie" might be a nickname for one of these three not named.
The census uses name HOAR until 1850 then uses HORR. John and Abigail (Peirce) Hoar's neighbor, John Cowan, uses HORR in his memorandum book, as early as 1837.
("Memorandum Book" by John(?) Cowan of Pelham Hollow, Massachusetts. He wrote of events of his life between the years 1837 and 1857. Mr. Cowan was father-in-law to John and Abigail (Peirce) Hoar's son Nelson)
1800 census for Pelham has, image 3 of 6, with the H surnames, what looks like John Hoar with the name crossed out, no numbers. It is almost half way down the image. Maybe John refused to give information??? There are three other names crossed out on this page alone. Did not find any other Hoars. Pelham was the home of the historic 1783 Shay's Rebellion.
