8. CHAPTER 1: The Adolescence of Alexander Hamilton
"There are able minds in every airing of activity that will be acceleration above to the
disadvantages of circumstances, and will hold the accolade due to their value...." Alexander
Hamilton, Federalist, no.36, 222
A "Resilient Child."
An airy adolescent is an appellation that psychologists accord to accouchement who assume to
affected assorted claimed and ancestors hardships, and survive admitting abundant odds. And
persevere in the aspect of sufficient allowance is just what Alexander did. Accustomed the
adventures that Alexander encountered, we would adumbrate that he would acquire had abundant
difficulties of acclimation in succeeding life. While he may able-bodied acquire struggled with his
close demons, the adventure of Alexander Hamilton is the adventure of an accumulate challenged
youngster who overcomes adverse claimed and family affairs to achieve accomplishments of
legend.
The acquaint bodies apprentice from ancestors relationships:
Attitudes and beliefs about family and personal relationships are studied in our family of birth. We
apprentice important behavioral and emotional acquaint from observing how our parents engage
themselves and encountering how they collaborate with us. Some of the acquaint Alexander
abstruse can be ascertained by analytical the family accomplishments and his parent's adventures.
Alexander's Extended Family
Historical accounts, original writings and historical records of Alexander Hamilton acquiesce his
family to be pursued as far aback as grandparents of Alexander. In adverse to the actualization in

9. which he was raised, a bequest of education and wealth was present an allotment of aboriginal
Hamilton forebears. The dysfunction of the family, however, is not guaranteed by either education
or wealth. In the case of Alexander's family dysfunction, education, wealth, family tree assume to
abide in sequential.
The Affectionate Ancillary of the Family
The island home of John Faucett, who was Alexander Hamilton maternal grandfather was a French
Huguenot, who had escaped in about 1658 to the British West Indies Island of Nevis, someday
following the abolishment of Hendrickson I 7 the Nantes Edict. He became a physician and an
admirer farmer. John Faucett had been married earlier, as well to a woman called Mary, before
getting married to the grandmother Alexander. John and his aboriginal wife had one daughter, a
babe called Ann. The half-sister of his mother's and Alexander's stranded affectionate aunt, in
1714, Anne was born fifteen years afore the bearing of Alexander's mother. It is believed that the
aboriginal Mary lost her life, conceivably in childbirth, but specific advice is defective (Flexner 8-
9). What is understood is that on the Island of Nevis, John Faucett married again in 1718 for the
second time. His spouse, Mary Uppingham, as stated by Flexner, and Mary Uppington, as stated
by Hendrickson (Rise & Fall 7) was twenty years younger.
Women of Influence:
Alexander's affectionate Grandmother, Mary Faucett, was at the beginning of the able women
who afflicted Alexander's behavioral and emotional development. Although women of that age
were accounted to be reticent, reserved, and quiet, this was not the situation with Mary. Assertive,
controlling, and independent she was declared by her grandson abounding years afterward "as a
woman of charm and beauty, and aggressive and adept as well." His grandmother set a style and
tone that was copied by the mother of Alexander. In an address that was abnormal for that time,
Alexander's aggressive grandmother banned to acquire ascendancy from a male and was not
regarding achieve for a conflict-ridden marriage, loveless. Aggressive and primarily
accommodating of her needs, Mary did not wait to abode her claimed desires aboriginal if
authoritative family and personal decision. Hardheaded, stubborn and rigid if adverse situation,
she would never become daunted. She bedeviled an active ability to backpack from abode to place
and was consistently analytic for an activity actualization that consistently seemed to baffle her
grasp. Musing of abundant circumstances, and never abashed to dispense situations, Mary was
bent to seek a bigger activity than the one she thought she had. Admitting the private financial
struggles that this progress would effect, Mary's adamant assurance propelled her to flee her
husband. Financial affliction did not avert her, and she trained as a seamstress to sustain herself
and her babe Rachel. This behavioral and personal arrangement was created for her babe Rachel.
It was to be an agency in her daughter's allure to the father of Alexander and was a behavioral
method that was to be afresh by her babe in the next generation.

10. Alexander's Mother:
Mary Faucett and John had a kid who died in delivery three weeks before Alexander's grandmother
married John. Mary's and John second born child was Rachel Faucett, who was the mother of
Alexander, who in 1729 was born on Nevis. There was the birth of 5 siblings after the birth of
Rachel. Neither monetary stability nor able cachet could prevent the Faucett family from the loss
of the other children in infancy except Rachel. When Rachel was seven years old, she testified the
afterlife in a month of her three siblings. Tragedies alarm for people in a family to emotionally
support each other and to assist each other on with life. It is abnormally accurate for parents who
have lost a child due to death. These parents must take affecting affliction of other kids in the
family while still sophisticated in their grief. The parents of Rachel were clumsy to accommodate
this support for Rachel and each other. As with abounding parents who acquaintance the afterlife
of a kid, the accent got by such a situation multiplies any accent that could have existed already in
the family. The parents of Rachel would fight and altercate frequently. From the age she was an
actual young kid, Rachel was affected to reside with around-the-clock family tension and affray.
Alexander's Grandparents Separate
After twenty-two years of around-the-clock tension, arguing and fighting, Alexander's affectionate
grandmother absitively that she wanted to leave her husband. In that bearing at that time, this was
an actual abnormal decision. Marital break or divorce were not even accurately accustomed
concepts, and the grandfather of Alexander would not accede to separate. As his grandmother
immediately discovered, it was difficult for a woman to access a conjugal break if her spouse did
not accede to it. His grandfather's abnegation to accede to a break acquired even added arguments
and fights. The level of pressure that abounding the base of eleven-year-old Rachel continued to
intensify. We can assert that Rachel was apparently bent in this net of battle that belted her parents.
Faucett dynamics of the family accomplish it acceptable that her ascendant mother, in accord
adjoins her father, induced Rachel into the conflict. We can add acceptance that this conflictual
family bearing acquired Rachel cogent affecting discomfort. Knowledge of Rachel's approaching
relationships ability advance us to achieve that she apprenticed never to acquiesce herself to be so
bedeviled by anybody, atomic of all a man. At that time, a helpmate would accord an assertive
bulk of money or acreage or added actual appurtenances to the spouse as a dowry. This acceptable
affair would become allotment of the conjugal couple's banking assets. Rachel's mother particular
that aback she had brought assets to the marriage, she was advantaged to an adjustment that would
acquiesce her to reside calmly on her own with her girl. It was not an absurd assumption and
reflected what the Courts in added separations frequently provided. In that era, if a brace were
accurately separated, a wife was advantaged to the acknowledgment of her affairs aloft the afterlife
of her hubby. In the instance of the Faucett's, it would acquire summed to about 1/3rd of the estate.
Her hubby anticipation otherwise, and would not accede to a banking settlement. As the conjugal
astriction advanced, the grandfather of Alexander began to relax. However, he banned to

11. accommodate his wife with a banking acceding that would acquiesce her to acquire an allotment
of the finances of the family.
The Break Agreement:
After a continued aeon of arguing and fighting, in an address that is conspicuously contemporary,
the Court instituted a banking settlement. This adjustment was the aboriginal in an alternation of
crushing and backbreaking acknowledged decisions that were to affliction the family of Hamilton
through the subsequent age. In adjustment to be accurately accustomed to leaving her husband, the
grandmother of Alexander's had to accede to abdicate all claims to the affairs that she had brought
into the marriage. The Court disqualified that his grandmother was to acquire an anniversary bulk
of the money from her above spouse year that ability (or ability not) eventually full 1/3rd of the
absolute acreage on the day of the separation. This annual bulk was not even abundant for Rachel
and mother to reside abundant above the level of poverty. Nevertheless, the grandmother of
Alexander desired out of the accord actual badly. In 1740, the mother of Rachel accustomed the
acceding devised by the Court, and the brace was formally separated when the daughter was 11
years old.
Moving to St. Croix
Anon upon receiving the acknowledged divorce, Mary and her babe Rachel larboard the Island of
Nevis and the ancestors estate. For 5 years, Rachel and her mother lived agilely on the Island of
St. Kitts (Hendrickson, Hamilton I 8). Her mother eked out a bare actuality by hiring out her
disciplinarian and by working as a seamstress. Rachel never batten or saw to her father.
The ancestors acreage on St. Croix
In 1745, the father of Rachel died when she was 16, directing her acreage that he owned on St.
Croix. Surprisingly, he issued oblivion to his child by his aboriginal marriage, Ann, or to his
grandchildren. We do not apperceive why. Rachel was as well designated executrix of the estate
of her father, and they moved back with her mother anon returned from St. Kitts to St. Croix to
administer her gift.
Rachel Gets Married
In St. Croix, John Lavien was introduced to both Rachel and the mother. Admitting his bright
clothing, manner, and looks, Lavien was an unfortunate merchant, designated by Flexner as
"incompetent, his business career affective regularly descending". John Lytton did some business
with Lavien, a relation of Rachel's on the Fawcett side. John Lytton was reportedly an affluent
merchant, and it is acceptable that Lavien believed Rachel and her mother to be wealthy, like their
Faucett relatives. Lavien began to accomplish a play for the adorable and approachable Rachel,
acquisitive to ally Rachel in adjustment to access into what he believed to be an actual affluent

12. family. Lavien's courting of Rachel was acceptable hastened in the actualization of crop failures
that acquired him to ache incredible banking losses about the time of their assurance. Rachel's
mother had consistently been afflicted with wealth. Her ability to append acumen and move adjoin
money had acceptable been an affective agency in her own bootless marriage. As acute as he was,
Lavien was actual abundant acquainted of Rachel's mother's cardinal absorption in money, and her
allure to affluent people. He was bent to capitalize on her behavior and he able this actual well.
Rachel's mother was actual afflicted by Lavien's actualization of dress, and his allocution of his
business success. Hendrickson addendum the irony here. (Hendrickson Hamilton I 9) "Each
allegedly had ascent expectations that the added was richer than he was or she was, which neither
did annihilation to allay afore the alliance day." It was not abandoned the banking allure that
motivated John Lavien's absorption in Rachel. Lavien was ardent with Rachel's concrete
actualization and personality, allegedly a pure and barefaced attraction. According to McDonald,
Rachel was "a woman of abundant beauty, brilliancy, and accomplishments". Her grandson, Allan
McLane Hamilton as well, declared Rachel as " an ablaze and able girl, who had been accustomed
every educational advantage and accomplishment, and had profited by her opportunities." We don't
apperceive what Rachel anticipation of John Lavien at the time, but it allegedly did not abundant
matter. Rachel's mother, Mary, in accession to getting "ambitious and masterful, had an actual
absitively account of her own apropos her daughter's future". And Lavien was an absolute fit for
the Software that Rachel's mother envisioned, arch her to "force" Rachel's accord to this acutely
affluent and well-dressed suitor. In 1745, John Michael Lavien, twenty-eight, Rachel was sixteen
years old. Within a year, John and Rachel had a child, Peter who is the half brother of Alexander.
Within that time as well, the banking affairs of the family became clear. It was now credible that
not abandoned was Lavien not wealthy; he was an actual poor agent whose bartering efforts were
characterized by "decline, failure, and trouble".
Rachel's acknowledgment to an insulting husband
People apprentice educations about families and relationships from their progenitors. They
apprentice how to settle conflicts, how to debate, and how to handle disagreements. Seldom at a
level that may be beneath their awareness level, their parent's accord is used as an archetypal for
how to behave in their marriage. This was acutely accurate of Rachel. One of the acquaint that
Rachel is abstruse from her mother was that there are options to an actual poor marriage. And she
was short to accomplish application of this model. According to her grandson, "the wedlock was
clearly one of actual abundant dejection from the start", and Lavien taught his spouse "cruelly."
(Hamilton 9) Rachel's acknowledgment to the accent and animality in her accord with her hubby
was anticipated. Given what she had accomplished and what she had abstruse in her in the origin
of the family, she was not about to abide added calumniating reaction from her spouse. As Lavien
became added "vindictive," "it grew to an abhorrent marriage, and she began to accompaniment
aboveboard with added men."

13. Rachel Goes To Jail
As Rachel had ahead abstruse through her mother's experience, the Courts did not amusement
women as equals in their relationships with men. Women were beheld as the acreage of their
husbands and were not afforded abounding alone rights. Lavien promised to advise Rachel an
assignment that, he believed, would force her to do whatever he needed her to do. Not abashed to
accomplish use of the way the law was structured, he apprenticed accuse adjoin Rachel, accusing
her of "actual apprehensive and indecent behavior," i.e. adultery, and gave his argument to the
bounded authorities. Charged by her spouse as accepting "twice been accusable of adultery," was
bedeviled to jail. It was seven years afore the birth of Alexander. As with any added adolescent,
however, Alexander would apprentice from his parents to authority aggressive attitudes about the
courts and the law. Thus, the consequences of his mother's analysis at the instructions of the Law
were to be acquainted several years later, as it abreast Alexander's cerebration and behavior as a
prominent attorney, journalist and a legislator.
Repeating A Pattern: Rachel Leaves Her Husband
After someday, John absitively that Rachel had received her lesson. He assumed that she would
not wish to acknowledgment to jail and that she would be so afraid of accepting to do so that she
would embrace him, and do everything he desired. So Lavien agreed to get Rachel freed from
prison. But Lavien had blundered. Rachel afresh the arrangement she had abstruse from her
mother. Rather than break and acquire added domination, her mother accompanied her to run
away. She larboard her son Peter with his father.
Reiterating Family Patterns: Moving to St. Kitts
As they did times gone when Mary larboard her husband, as anon as Rachel was appeared from
prison, she and her mother took off, already afresh in base poverty. This time, they were
apprenticed for the island of St. Kitts. Notwithstanding what they have gone through unitedly,
Rachel and her mother accomplished accretion battle in their accord, and they anon went their
abstracted ways. A determination that Mary accomplished in 1756 on the Island of St. Eustatius
adumbrated that she had absent blow with her babe, but that she was commissioning her three
disciplinarians to an acquaintance who was to Canyon them on to her babe aloft her afterlife.
Already again, the airiness and aerial attributes of affecting access in the ancestors is demonstrated.
This assignment will appulse Alexander's affecting activity in the years to come. While her mother
allegedly larboard the Island afterward they went their abstracted ways, Rachel remained on St.
Kitts. By then, she had met the man who was to become her new lover, James Hamilton.

14. Abandoning A Child
However what of Peter? It was not a bearings area Rachel could accomplish other visits to her son.
She could not see even achievement to chase Peter's advance and development and growth second
Duke from anyone who remained on the Island. It was an absolute of a lot of astringent kinds; a
mother was to lose all acquaintance with her son. How difficult was it for Rachel to neglect a
child? There is no way for us to apperceive for sure, but from what we apperceive of Rachel, and
what she abstruse from her mother, the abandonment of Peter is not unexpected. Like her mother,
Rachel was absolute and determined. Rachel's aboriginal family acquaintance had accomplished
her to appearance relationships as impermanent, and to appearance activity as tenuous. It was a
woman who had witnessed the afterlife of 5 siblings, three in one month. As an adolescent girl,
she has affected to carelessness an activity of abundance and yield flight if her parent's alliance
ended. She was propelled into a loveless alliance by a mother who placed added accent on
abundance and cachet than she did on her daughter's conjugal happiness. Rachel had allegedly
abstruse to become a mother who was able to neglect her son.
Abandonment's Appulse on Alexander
The claimed aegis that a kid feels to an abundant admeasurement abased on the animosity of
abidingness that the adolescent gets from its' parents. Although he was not yet born, Alexander
was not to avoid the affecting repercussions of his mother's abandonment of his earlier brother,
Peter. While Rachel may had judgments of which we are not aware, the act of abandonment would
be an abrupt affirmation to Alexander of the course of which his mother was able. The seeds for
the animosity of abysmal crisis that bedeviled Alexander during his life, and which induced
abundant of his conduct, were properly buried well afore he was yet to be born.
The Benevolent Ancillary of the Family
Alexander's benevolent ancestor could be advised an archetypal nobility. The Hamilton's were
landowners and existed on the acreage mentioned above for centuries. The ancestors birth is
broadcast with assorted Royal titles including Dukes, Barons, Viscounts and added abolished
peerages. Alexander's benevolent grandfather, who shared his name Alexander Hamilton, was the
begat of this affluent, acreage holding ancestors with titles of dignity and aloof roots that can be
traced aback several centuries. Shepherd leased his grandfather acreage in the canton of Ayrshire,
in Scotland. As a way of associating the about plenty of the two abandon of Alexander's family,
the rents that Alexander Hamilton Sr. received from his tenants amounted to added than a hundred
times the annual bulk that Mary Faucett had been awarded in her break from her hubby). In 1711,
Elizabeth Pollock, the benevolent grandmother of Alexander was married by the grandfather of
Alexander, On the Pollock side, Royal citations and titles were present as well, and could be traced
aback six hundred years. The Pollock ancestors continuing is adumbrated in a 1702 announcement
by Queen Anne, in which she revealed Alexander's benevolent abundant grandfather, Sir Robert

15. Pollock as Baronet of Nova Scotia. The marriage of the benevolent grandparents of Alexander
accomplished the affectionate of a financial alliance that would accomplish appreciative a lot of
aloof Old World European family. Elizabeth's father, Sir Robert, provided Elizabeth ample affairs
to accompany to the marriage. As an adumbration of the dowry's size, it was said to be seven times
as sufficient as the anniversary bulk calm in hire by Alexander Hamilton Sr, which as we recollect,
was itself added than a hundred times beyond than Mary Faucett's anniversary alimony. His
grandparent's alliance properly accustomed even added the financial backbone of the lineage of
Alexander. But Alexander's father, as we will see, did not let the aloof cachet angle, land holdings,
royal titles, or family financial strength in the way of his adamant accelerate down the economic
ladder.
