- James Hamilton, 3rd Baron Hamilton of Strabane
James Hamilton, 3rd Lord Hamilton, Baron of Strabane (1633 – June 16 1655) was an Irish peer, the elder son of Claud Hamilton, 2nd Baron Hamilton of Strabane and Lady Jean Gordon.
He succeeded his father in the peerage in 1638. A Roman Catholic, he joined Sir Phelim O'Neill and commanded the defense of Charlemont in 1650. The fortress fell to the Cromwellians in August; Hamilton became a fugitive and was captured soon after. His lands were confiscated, and he sought the protection of Sir Charles Coote; but in December 1650, he returned to his old cause and took arms again with Sir Phelim. He died at Ballyfathen in 1655, and was succeeded by his brother George.
