HAMILTON, ALEXANDER [SSNE 210]
Text source
Alexander Hamilton was a captain in the Earl of Nithsdale's [SSNE 531] regiment in the Danish-Norwegian army from 1627-1629. This is probably the same as the Alexander Hamilton [SSNE 380] who subsequently entered Swedish service and became a colonel, although Alexander Hamilton was a name common to a few officers.
