Robert Schuyler Hamilton; information on Roberts headstone indicates that he was born Jan. 4, 1834 - but census records show different. 1850 census has Robert at 25 yrs making his birth at 1824 or 1825, along with wife Malissa at 20 yrs born in 1831, & 3 children ages 3, 2, 0.
1860 census shows Robert at 35 yrs of age making his birth in 1824 or 1825, wife Malissa is 27 yrs, & 5 Hamilton children; Susanah 12, John 11, William J. 10, Lucy A. 8, James R. 6

Since I did not create this memorial, I will not alter Roberts birth info, but will leave it how I received it in transfer & according to the date on his Headstone.
