I do not know where to look up this specific family, but there are details to be found in a variety of places.
Also it is confusing that some people are written up with _Sir_ and in other places without.

IN the Scottish Peerage under the Sempill family amongst the details of Grizel Sempill you can find :

James Hamilton of Raploch and his first wife Margaret Mowat
are parents of
James Hamilton, of Stonhouse (was he a Sir?)
he was Provost of Edinburgh and Captain of the Castle.
in 1548 he was slain together with his eldest son (also a James)
he married (1)..............(?)........................
they had five sons (no daughters ?)
James, John, Robert, Archibald and Thomas.
Then he marries "before 10 March 1539/1540 and divorces 21-2-1545/46 Grizel Sempill
they had Robert. John, Elizabeth (married and divorced by Roger Kirkpatrick) and Grizel
========================
In Burke's Landed Gentry, 1937, page 1399 we find
Mungo Lockhart, 3rd of Cleghorn, he married NN Hamilton, daughter of Sir James Hamilton, of Stonehouse, Captain of the Castle of Edinburgh.
Mungo, in 1572, was "dilitat" for the murder of Henry Darnley, husband of Mary Queen of Scots. This makes me believe that his father-in-law was the James Hamilton Sr. killed in 1548. But who was NN Hamilton and she was daughter by which wife? Was her mother perhaps Grizel daughter of the 2nd marriage of James Hamilton of Stonehouse?

Many thanks.
