How many children did he have?: Alexander and Elizabeth Hamilton had eight children. Remarkably for the time, all but the eldest, Philip, lived well into adulthood. Philip died in a tragic duel in 1801, defending his father's honor. Alexander only gave his son one bit of advice for the duel, that being to fire into the air.
His father was James A. Hamilton, the fourth son of the Scottish laird Alexander Hamilton of Grange, Ayrshire. Recognized for his abilities and talent, he was sent to King's College (now Columbia University) in New York City. Hamilton played a major role in the American Revolutionary War.
