Notizen zu dieser Person
NOTE: He recovered the baronetcy by establishing that he was heir maleof the last baronet. on the 22 August 1816 he applied toChancery to berecognised as heir and the descent was thenrecorded as:Service of HeirsWhen someone fell heir to landed property, they would oftenapply to Chancery to be recognised as that heir. A jury wouldthen be empanelled and their verdict in the form of a Service orRetour would be issued. After that, the heir would take titleto the property and this would be recorded in the ParticularRegister of Sasines for the county in which thelands lay.Retours are generally not very informative and if the heir wasdecerned as heir general the actual property is not named.They are also in Latin until 1847C22/109 - Retours (Services of Heirs)22 August 1816, no.22The jury consisted of advocates, writers to the signet and theodd residenter in Edinburgh and the inquest was held beforethe Sheriff depute. The actual descent is described as follows:'Robertus Hamilton de Preston et de Fingalton Eques Baronettis(Frater Gulielmus Hamilton de Preston Equitis Baronetti) filiusThoma Hamilton de Preston Militisfilii Roberti Hamilton filiiGeorgii Hamilton de Preston Militis filiiDavidis Hamilton dePreston Militis filii Roberti Hamilton de Preston Militis filiiDomini Roberti Hamilton de Preston et de Fingalton Militisfilius atnepotis Abavi Tritavi Gulielmi Hamilton ArmigeriAdvocatis Latoris praesentium filio Gulielmi Hamilton Anatomiceset Botanices in Academia Glaguensis Professoris filii ThomaHamilton in eodem Academia Anatomices et Botanices Professorisfilii natu quarto Gulielmi Hamilton de Airdrie in Vicecomitatude Lanark, filii Roberti Hamilton de Airdrie filii GavineHamilton de Airdrie filii Joannes Hamilton de Airdrie filiiGavine Hamitlon de Airdrie filii Methusalae Hamilton de Airdriefilii Joannis Hamilton de Airdrie filii natu secindi dict.Domini Roberti Hamilton de Preston et ac Fingalton Dict.Gulielmus Hamilton Armiger Advocatis Lator praesentium estpropinquor et legitimus Haeres Masculis in generali___________________________________________________________________The lastbit is in three parts. First it traces the ancestry ofthe last recognised baronet, Robert Hamilton, to his forbear SirRobert Hamilton of Preston and Fingalton. Second it traces theancestry of the claimant, William Hamilton ("Armigeri AdvocatisLatoris") to the same Sir Robert Hamilton of Preston, etc.Finally it asserts that said William is the heir male in generalof said Sir Robert.This was accepted by the court, but we have no real evidence ofthe claim.At least the court statement is the same as that in Burke'speerage and baronetage of 1885!
