Married Isabella Hamilton FIRST
they had the following children:
Eli, John, David, Elizabeth, William, Mary, Robert, Samuel?, Sarah Isabella, Levi & William
he then
Married Isabelly Bodley
they had the following children:
Andrew & Owen
This also accounts for the huge discrepency in death dates. First wife Isabella died in 1739 and second wife Isabella died in 1779.
I find listings for Isabella Bodley Hamilton as one person but the birthdates of the children and headstone readings support there being two wives both named Isabella. I hope this helps to clear up some mysteries in your tree and I hope that I finally have it correct! Thank you to the person who posted the headstones on www.tltodd.com and to the people who posted the Sons of the American Revolution who only list the children of Isabella Bodley under her father's service.
