The run was taken up in the 1840's as an occupational lease and known as the 'Sharinga Run' of which JF Haigh and RW Mortlock were the leaseholders. The lake was named after George Hamilton, the commissioner of police in South Australia in 1839 when Edward John Eyre made his exploration of the area.
