About Hamilton

Hamilton is a small, quiet Martin County community set right along the Roanoke River. Founded in 1804 as a busy riverport, today it offers a laid-back, rural feel where local history is always close by. You will find places like Fort Branch and the town's historic Rosenwald School highlighting that heritage. State routes 125 and 903 make it easy to get around the region, but Hamilton itself remains an easygoing riverside spot for anyone looking for peace and open space.
