67. Graham Pierce Hamilton was born on 14 Sep 1905 in Sidney MB. He died on 1 Dec 1973 in Unity Sask..

He was married to Elizabeth Celeste Crowell on 27 Jul 1933 in Prevost AB. Elizabeth Celeste Crowell was born on 22 Dec 1910 in Unity, Saskatchewan. I met Graham in Unity Saskatchewan and we moved in 1937 to Beacon Hill Saskatchewan (northern part of province) where we homesteaded. After Graham passed away I remained in Pierceland until 5 Feb 1997. Then I moved to Cold Lake AB where I reside in the Lodge. The Lodge is a beautiful home with 48 residents. We are now 18 residents from Pierceland SK we were all young homesteaders at one time so I didn't move in with strangers. The age range of the Lodge is 75 - 90 and all in pretty good health. A few little notes about the Hamilton's I remember Justin Hamilton's Father (Matthew) staying with them and as at my (Garth) Grandma and Grandpa Hugh and Fanny Hamilton's. One spring day while at your Grandma's in Unity great grandpa Justin went along the street and picked all the boots off the peoples doorsteps. He arrived with a small wagon wagon full. The wagon Hugh and Fanny used in the garden. So my Aunt Fanny (Garth's Grandma) had to go and find out who they belonged to. Another time at Justin's the men came in half an hour early for dinner as it was raining. Your great grandpa Matthew immediately put on his hat and coat and Justin said "Where do you think you are going in the rain"? Well he said "somebody has to do the work"!
Mrs Hamilton's sister Amelia and Mr Hamilton sister Effie made Thier home there for a few years. Graham Pierce Hamilton and Elizabeth Celeste Crowell had the following children:
