Name[編輯]

It is named for Alexander Hamilton, as are similar townships, in Franklin, Jackson, and Lawrence counties statewide.

History[編輯]

It was one of the four original townships of Warren County, created on May 10, 1803, when the county was just nine days old. It originally encompassed all of the present Hamilton Township, plus the portion of Salem Township to the south of the Little Miami, all of Harlan Township, and most of Washington Township. On June 24, 1813, the eastern part of the township was separated by drawing a line south from the mouth of Todd's Fork on the Little Miami. The entirety of the township is in the Virginia Military District and was surveyed under the metes and bounds system.

政府[編輯]

鎮區有3人組成的理事會管理。理事會理事選舉在奇數年11月舉行,並在來年1月1日開始四年任期。兩名理事的選舉在總統選舉後一年舉行,另一名的選舉在總統選舉前一年舉行。鎮區財務官亦由選舉產生[4],與一名鎮區理事選舉同時舉行,不過在來年4月1日才開始四年任期。若財務官或理事職位有空缺,將由剩餘理事填補。

Public services[編輯]

Most of the township is in the Little Miami Local School District, but parts are in the Loveland City, Kings Local, and Goshen Local School Districts. The township is primarily served by the Little Miami and South Lebanon telephone exchanges, but parts lie in the Morrow and Butlerville exchanges. Mail is delivered through the Maineville, Loveland, Goshen, South Lebanon, and Morrow post offices.

Transportation[編輯]

The major roads are US Route 22/Ohio 3, also known as the 3C Highway and originally known as the Cincinnati, Montgomery, and Hopkinsville pike. The Marietta and Cincinnati Railroad, which was absorbed by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, ran through the southeast corner of the township, while the Little Miami Road followed the Little Miami River through the township. (This is now the Little Miami Bike Trail.)
