Established in 1835, the town was originally named 'Landing.' The plat was laid out by Joel Hamilton and George McGlasson. In addition to Hamilton and McGlasson, the first town trustees were: William Winston, Jr., Henry L. Rose and James Dukan.

The town was eventually renamed 'Hamilton' in honor of Joel Hamilton.
