Milton Wheaton Hamilton.

Hamilton was a historian, editor, and administrator whose primary work was 'The Country Printer: New York State, 1785-1830.' He spent his career as a historian at Albright College (1926-49), in the Division of Archives and History of the New York State Education Department (1949-63); and then served as director of that division until his retirement in 1965. While at the archives he became known as a colonial historian, and edited the papers of Sir William Johnson. Five volumes of those papers appeared between 1951 and 1965, and in 1976 he published a biography of Johnson: 'Sir William Johnson, Colonial American, 1715-1763.'
