James Earl Hamilton Marsden - Ancestors
Hamilton was married firstly, c.1490, to Elizabeth Home, daughter of Alexander Home, 2nd Lord Home. The marriage was dissolved in 1506, when it was found that her first husband Thomas Hay, a son of John Hay, 1st Lord Hay of Yester, was still alive at the time of the wedding. In November 1516 Hamilton married Janet Bethune of Easter Wemyss, daughter of Sir David Bethune of Creich, and widow of Sir Robert Livingstone of Easter Wemyss, who had been killed in the Battle of Flodden Field. In November 1504 Hamilton had been granted a divorce from Elizabeth Home on the grounds that she had previously been married to Thomas Hay. Hay had apparently left the country and was thought to be dead when Hamilton married Home in or before 1490, but in fact he did not die until 1491 or later.

The Royal Wedding of Prince William and Catherine Middleton was the event of the decade, and today marks the third anniversary. See all the beautiful pictures again.
Prince William married Catherine Middleton in the most anticipated Royal Wedding of the decade, on 29th April 2011. And as the couple celebrate their 4th anniversary, we're looking back at those incredible wedding pictures from the big day.
Held in the iconic Westminster Abbey, the world watched on as the bride-to-be stepped out of her classic wedding car, after a short but no doubt nervous journey through the streets of London, revealing her breathtaking Alexander McQueen gown to the waiting crowds.
Nipped-in at the waist and featuring delicate vintage-inspired lace sleeves, Kate Middleton's incredible gown was the perfect choice for a royal bride, and no doubt inspired thousands of replica versions across the globe.
Alongside her, Maid Of Honour Pippa Middleton wowed in an equally chic invory Alexander McQueen gown.
And the guests didn't dissappoint on the style-front either. The royal family were a delight in complimentary pastel shades. While Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie went one step further, opting for showstopping creations that were anything but boring.
The Beckhams joined the celebrity guests, with Victoria opting for a striking navy dress of her own creation, and David a dapper morning suit.
From the arrival of the bride and guests, the beautiful ceremony to the newly married couple zipping out in a vintage car for a spin around town - we chart the most incredible moments from the royal wedding of Prince William and Catherine Middleton.
