Hamilton and his first wife, Orilla Lewis, had five children, with the youngest born in September 1872. Orilla had been in ill-health, so they hired Eliza Jane Hymers as a caregiver and nursemaid to the children, likely before the birth of the last child. Eliza remained with them after the birth.
Orilla died about 8 months after the birth. Family records show that Eliza was kept on as a nanny for the children.
On 17 Dec 1873, Hamilton and Eliza married. His children, at the time, would have been ages 11, 9, 7, 4, and 1.
After their marriage, Hamilton and Eliza had six more children.
