Notes for Francis Edmund Hamilton
The 1881 census says he was ‘Francis Edward’.

In 1881 he was a student of law with BA Cantab.
_______________________

Did he have a daughter Geraldine?  (Born in Dulwich, registered in Camberwell, Surrey in Q3 of 1884.) She was with her paternal grandfather in 1901 and with her uncle James in 1911, though not found in 1891.

Her birth:

In 1939 she was with her 89 year old aunt at The Mill House, Cookham and in 1946 was one of the two executors to her aunt.  Her birth date was given as 23 Jun 1884.  She was then single.

I can find no more of her, no marriage or death.
