County,IN
Hello,
His wife Margaret is buried in Westville, LAPORTE county, Indiana. She is
in Westville Cemetery, but it does not show her buried with him on the
listing I have.
http://www.rootsweb.com/~inlpccem/cemeteries/Westville/Westville_H.htm
He could be, perhaps there isn't a stone or perhaps he was buried
elsewhere. Have you tried applying to the Michigan City, Indiana library
to see if there is an obit for her or him?
http://www.mclib.org/obituary.htm
They have some, but not all of their obits listed on line.
She died Dec 6, 1915 in Westville.

Alexander HAMILTON is buried in Carter Cemetery in Jackson Township,
Porter
Co.
("City Address" of Carter Cemetery is Valparaiso, Indiana) He was a Civil
War Veteran,
Company "I" 20th Indiana Infantry.
Margaret (Ann FISHER), buried in Westville Cemetery, appears to be his
second wife.
Joseph HAMILTON, also buried in Carter Cemetery, appears to be the son of
Alexander
and Margaret.
I don't show any other HAMILTON burials in Jackson or Pine Township
cemeteries.
See Cheryl's pages:

I don't have an obit for him but would appreciate a 'copy' if you obtain
one!

Hi, I have an Alexander Hamilton born 17 Oct 1824 in Virginia, died 08 Aug
1904 in Westville, Porter County, IN.
Am trying to locate his place of burial, and haven't been lucky so far.
Think that he may have been buried in Westpoint Cemetery, but have no way
to
look it up. I've been digging through all of the regular websites -
Findagrave, Interment,
Ancestry.com and the files on USGenweb, but no
luck.
My local genealogy library here in the Houston area, is great, but not
real
heavy on the northern middle states.
If anyone has access to cemetery records for Porter County, Indiana I'd
really appreciate a lookup if possible.
Thanks!
