Old Documents
We have a page listing names of children who were involved in handwriting exercises at Hamilton North School in 1825 and 1826. We have those papers and will send to descendants of those names.

Following are some preliminary and unconfirmed notes for the following documents. We will eagerly receive ANY and ALL information that you can provide us on these or any other documents. You can view the original document or the text. Their are links to both. There are MANY documents here with much more to be added.

The typing of the text of these documents has been done by Carol Linder and are translated EXACTLY as they are written. This means that there are strange spellings of some words, capitalization in the middle of sentences, and other anomalies that seem strange to us today. We will be linking each document to the typed text.  You can also view the documents in their original form by clicking on the thumbnail. This page under construction with translations to be added.
