Son of Marcus and Margaret Erwin.

"Carved on this little slab is the branch of an oak. On one little twig there hangs two acorn cups. An acorn is still clinging to one of the cups, while the one in the other cup has fallen out, and lies on the ground. This impressed the writer very much, he once having a twin brother who has long since left earth and gone to the Spirit Land."

-S.C. Kerley, neighbor of Hamilton Erwin, in THE NEWS HERALD, Morganton, NC, April 17, 1919.
