Alexander Hamilton Grave

Alexander Hamilton (1755 or 57 - 1804)

 

He was one of the founders of the Constitution and is the founder of America’s financial system. He is on the ten dollar bill. His grave is also a few blocks from the 9/11 Memorial.

 

He was killed on a duel with the Vice President of the United States, Aaron Burr. Witnesses heard two shots. Yet, Hamilton was only hit with one. Many think Hamilton purposely missed, thinking Burr will also.

 

Below his monument is the grave of his widow, Eliza Hamilton.
