According to historian Ron Chernow, he graduated from Columbia in 1804, several weeks after his father was killed in a duel with Aaron Burr.[5][6] According to the St. Andrew's Society of New York, of which Hamilton was a member, Hamilton "did not graduate on account of an accident", but shortly afterward began the study of law.[7] CareerAfter college, Hamilton was invited to be an apprentice attorney in Stephen Higginson's Boston law firm, and was later admitted to practice law.[5] He sailed to Spain in 1811 or 1812,[7][10] during a period of political conflict preceding the War of 1812, and joined the Duke of Wellington's forces, then fighting against Napoleon's army in Portugal.[6] After acquiring some military and strategic training with the British Army,[6] Hamilton returned to America to serve in the War of 1812, receiving a commission as Captain of the 41st Regiment of Infantry in the United States Army in August 1813.[7] The 41st Regiment did not appear to have seen active service in the war,[14] and Hamilton went on to act as aide-de-camp to his father's friend General Morgan Lewis in 1814, serving until June 15, 1815.[6][16] Hamilton resumed the practice of law, and took office in July 1818 as a member of the 42nd New York State Legislature for a one-year term, as one of eleven representatives to the New York State Assembly from New York City. In May 1822, President James Monroe appointed Hamilton as a United States Attorney for East Florida.[17] In 1823, he was appointed to be one of three Land Commissioners for East Florida,[16] and while there, he received the military rank of Colonel.[7] He ran unsuccessfully against Richard K. Call to be the Florida Territory's delegate in the United States House of Representatives. Hamilton subsequently returned to New York, where he became successful in real estate transactions, and for many years was one of the leading names in Wall Street.[7] In the mid-1830s, as a lawyer in the New York Court of Chancery, Hamilton represented Eliza Jumel against her husband Aaron Burr during two years of divorce proceedings, which were finalized in 1836 on the day of Burr's death. She and Burr had separated after only four months of marriage.[5] Hamilton had a "large and varied correspondence" with other political contemporaries including his close friend Henry Clay, John C. Calhoun, Salmon P. Chase, and Presidents James Monroe and Zachary Taylor.[7] Personal lifeIn 1817, Hamilton married Eliza P. Knox (d. 1871), daughter of William Knox, who was at that time a leading merchant in New York City.[7] In 1833, when his mother Eliza Hamilton was 76 years old, Hamilton used funds from his mother's sale of The Grange to purchase a townhouse for her and his family in New York City, at 4 St. Mark's Place (now known as the Hamilton-Holly House).[25] Between 1833 and 1842, he and his wife lived there with his mother, his sister Eliza Hamilton Holly, and her husband Sidney Augustus Holly.[25] During a trip through the West with his wife in 1835, Hamilton met Abraham Lincoln, then an Illinois state legislator, in a grocery store where Lincoln was "lying upon the counter in midday telling stories."[7] During the last ten years of his life, Hamilton resided in New Brunswick, New Jersey and in New York City, where he moved after the death of his wife in 1871.[7] Hamilton died, having had no children, on August 2, 1875, at his home, 83 Clinton Place, in Greenwich Village.[7][1] References1. ^1 {{cite news|title=OBITUARY. {{!}} ALEXANDER HAMILTON|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1875/08/03/archives/obituary.html|accessdate=14 April 2017|work=The New York Times|date=3 August 1875}} [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]2. ^1 {{cite book |title=Historical Register of the United States Army, From Its Organization: September 29, 1789, to September 29, 1889 |last=Heitman |first=Francis B. |location=Washington, D.C. |publisher=The National Tribune |year=1890 |page=315 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=RnQBAAAAMAAJ&pg=PA315#v=onepage&q&f=false }} 3. ^1 {{cite book |title=The Papers of Alexander Hamilton |volume=Volume XVII, August–December 1794 |editor-first=Harold C. |editor-last=Syrett |publisher=Columbia University Press |year=1972 |isbn=9780231089166 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=PwQpG5zcY3IC&pg=PA288 |page=288 n.1 |via=Google Books }} 4. ^1 {{cite book |title=The Papers of Alexander Hamilton |volume=Volume XVIII, January–July 1795 |editor-first=Harold C. |editor-last=Syrett |publisher=Columbia University Press |year=1973 |isbn=9780231089173 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=iuNiFnu4tyIC&q=Frazer#v=snippet&q=Frazer&f=false |page=246 nn.1–2 |via=Google Books }} 5. ^1 2 3 {{cite book |last=Chernow |first=Ron |title=Alexander Hamilton |page=726 }} 6. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite book |first=Allan McLane |last=Hamilton |year=1910 |title=The Intimate Life of Alexander Hamilton |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=3TYOAAAAIAAJ&pg=PA215#v=onepage&q&f=false |page=217 |via=Google Books }} 7. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 {{cite book |title=Biographical Register of Saint Andrew's Society of the State of New York |volume=Vol. II, 1807–1856 |format=PDF |last=MacBean |first=William M. |year=1925 |pages=18–19 |url=https://archive.org/download/biographicalregi04macb/biographicalregi04macb.pdf }} 8. ^1 {{cite book |title=Alexander Hamilton and the Persistence of Myth |page=22 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=DI12AAAAMAAJ |first=Stephen F. |last=Knott |year=2002 |quote=a streak akin to his father's love of military adventure when in 1811 he fought under the Duke of Wellington in Portugal }} 9. ^1 {{cite book |title=Historical Dictionary of the War of 1812 |first=Robert |last=Malcomson |publisher=Scarecrow Press |year=2006 |page=190 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=DRqpoBEEoloC&pg=PA190 |via=Google Books }} 10. ^1 2 {{cite encyclopedia |entry=Alexander Hamilton |work=Appleton's Cyclopædia of American Biography, Volume 3 |page=60 |editor1-first=James Grant |editor1-last=Wilson |editor2-first=John |editor2-last=Fiske |location=New York |publisher=D.
