Hamilton, Philip, 1802-1884
Philip Hamilton was the youngest child of Elizabeth Schuyler Hamilton and Alexander Hamilton. He was named in memory of his oldest brother, also Philip Hamilton. The older Philip was killed in a duel. Hamilton practiced law in New York, and served as an assistant United States Attorney during the 1830s under his older brother James Alexander Hamilton. An abolitionist, Hamilton assisted the Underground Railroad in the escape of at least one slave by concealing the fugitive in his cellar until he could safely resume his travel to Canada.
