Maude Hamilton Dies In Hospital
Maude Hamilton, 79, daughter of Civil War Gen. Thomas Jefferson Hamilton, died at a local hospital yesterday after a short illness.
For the past three years she had resided with her brother-in-law and sister, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Aken of Kentfield.
Miss Hamilton was born in Nebraska but spent most of her life in Seattle before coming to California in 1924.
Her father was lieutenant governor of Nebraska and the last United States marshal to serve the territory of Washington before it became a state.
She is also survived by another sister, Mrs. Lillian Weidman of Seattle.
Private funeral services were held today at Keaton’s Mortuary in San Rafael. Interment will be in the family plot in Seattle, Wash.
