'The House of Hamilton' shows William (shown by both GenEU and TCP as an elder brother of the 4th Earl) to be a younger brother of that Earl and a possible ancestor of the Hamilton family in Scotland. As any surviving male issue of a brother of the Earl would have had an easy claim on the earldom, this would only have been likely had the issue not been legitimate (which of course may have been the case) or had been formally attainted (which is unlikely as a record of this would certainly have been made). However, it is noted that William's brother Roger was a key figure in Scotland around the time of (or just before) the appearance of the first proven member of the Hamilton family (see Hamilton01).

About Me
- Hare
- This is not an ordinary blog. This is a bed time story for my nephews who live far and away from me but are never far from my thoughts. But this bed time story, my dear nephews, isn't like other bed time stories. This is a series of stories, letters to you, about your family and their journey through the pages of history is filled with wonder and adventure. These stories will take you through the Golden Age of Greek gods to Adam and Eve after Eden, through the fall of Homer's Troy in the Iliad to the wanderings of Vikings through a newly Christian Europe, to Norman nobles that aided a king in 1066 AD and still sit in the House of Lords today, to traveling to the New World and fighting in the American Revolution, all the way until today when you lie sleeping in your beds by the sea as you read these pages from me. I hope learning about your ancestors will not only give you both a sense of destiny as they fill your imagination with spirited ideas but also a sense of duty that you must believe and fulfill a remarkable adventure in your heart. It is in your blood to achieve such a wish as this. Goodnight, little princes.
