>I was also told as a child I was related to Janet Hamilton. I think she was my great, great, great aunt. My grandmother, born in 1896 Elizabeth Wallace took my Father to the Memorial fountain in Coatbridge to remember her ?great aunt - I haven't delved too deeply at present, as I've just discovered her works. My Grandmother spent a lifetime trying to find out about her poetry, but failed. -the wonders of the internet! The name "Hamilton" has been passed down through the family and I was born and raised in the South East of Glasgow. I was born in Bellshill Maternity Hospital, not far from the home of Janet Hamilton in Coatbridge.
I'm hoping my father has more information.

I am related to Janet Hamilton, through my father's Motherwell, Lanarkshire family, and she is my great-great great(I think!) grandmother. I have one book of her collected works handed down through the family, and would love to learn more. There are Hiltons also in the family tree, and there have been South African (Durban) connections, so I would be interested to get in touch with Anne Hilton.
