Courtesy of Frank Walker, his Gr-Great-Grandson:
"On a Modern Woodmen Insurance application in 1898, my grandfather, Hugh Walker, said his mother's father, George Hamilton was "killed, age 45" with no other details."
Buried in St. Charles Cemetery, St. Mary, KY. The book about St. Charles Borromeo Catholic Cemetery by Gerald Thompson, states that his marker had shown: "George L. Hamilton b. 6-14-1818 - d. 10-02-1853," which indicates that his stone was standing when Dr. Joseph E. Johnson, a Louisville dentist, recorded St. Charles Cemetery in 1935, but was no longer standing when Gerald Thompson recorded St. Charles Cemetery in 1979.
