Per Goulburn Evening Penny Post (NSW : 1881 - 1940)Tuesday 11 April 1911:
"Mr. Alexander Hamilton, an old resident of Spring Valley, died in the Goulburn Hospital on Monday morning, at the age of 75 years. Deceased, who was married and leaves a family, was admitted to the hospital on 28th March. The cause of death was senile decay."
It is noted that the registration of Alexander's eldest son's birth brought to light that he and Lydia were not actually married. Alexander, in the course of registering his son's birth, made a false statement. As reported in The Goulburn Herald and Chronicle (NSW : 1864 - 1881) Sat 23 Sep 1865 p.4:
"... Lydia Watt being questioned by his Honor said that she had been married about seven years; her husband had received a sentence of ten years on the roads. His Honor asked both parties if they were willing to marry if they could lawfully do so; and both replied that they were. His Honor said that they had best inquire whether Watt were dead, and if so get married. The prisoner was then sentenced to one month's imprisonment in Goulburn jail."
