Ceremony to Honor Private William Hamilton, War of 1812 Veteran
From the October 24, 2017, Russellville (Arkansas) Courier News.
The Texas and Arkansas Societies, U.S. daughters of the War of 1812, gathered at the Old Baptist cemetery, in Russellville to mark the grave and hold a commemorative service for War of 1812 veteran Private William Hamilton.
His great-great-great granddaughter, Mary Anne Norman Davidson gave a talk on his life.
His grave now has one of those brass War of 1812 veteran markers.
