Hi Nancy- I look thru my save letter box and ran across some interesting information. Not sure on the info, but believe the info is accurate. Big clue on the William Hamilton and wife Jean (Jane) children order of births.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
William Hamilton died in January, 1782, and left a wife, Jean, and the following children: Hugh, who died in 1810, was father of John Hamilton; William, who moved to the West in 1810, where he died; and John, son of Hugh Hamilton, was appointed to settle his estate. The third son was John, and the fourth James Hamilton, who was a colonel in the Revolution; Robert, who was the father of John; and Ann, who married James Wallace; Nancy, the seventh child, married Thomas Wade. For full sketch of Col. James Hamilton, see "Appleton's Encyclopedia."

If Hugh Hamilton was the the first born, it definately fit with the nameing pattern of the Presbyterian church. Hugh Hamilton was named after his Mother's father. So therefore there is no question on my mind on the ancestor of Jane McIlvaine.
Better stop for now and ponder futher. sincerely, Jim
