History

Hamilton was originally called Terre Coupee, and under the latter name was platted in 1837. The name of Hamilton comes from Hamilton's Tavern the community once contained. A post office opened under the name Terre Coupee in 1831, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1893.
