Anne Hamilton, III duchessa di Hamilton (Londra, 6 gennaio 1631 – Hamilton, 17 ottobre 1716), è stata una nobildonna scozzese.
Era la figlia di James Hamilton, I duca di Hamilton, generale scozzese e primo pari del regno e Lady Margaret Feilding, figlia di William Feilding, I conte di Denbigh e Lady Susan Villiers una sorella di George Villiers, I duca di Buckingham.
Anne nacque nel palazzo di Whitehall, residenza dei reali inglesi dove sua madre era Lady of the Bedchamber della moglie di re Carlo I Stuart, la regina Enrichetta Maria.
Quando il padre, venne condannato a morte per alto tradimento dal Parlamento inglese, il titolo passò allo zio di Anne, William. Quando, nel 1650, a seguito delle ferite ricevute nella battaglia di Worcester, anche lo zio morì, Anne ricevette il ducato di Hamilton e divenne Duchessa come previsto dalla normativa in mancanza di eredi maschi.
Ella inoltre, per parte di suo padre, era in linea di successione al trono di Scozia nel caso del fallimento della casata degli Stuart. Anne discendeva infatti da Giacomo II di Scozia attraverso il matrimonio del I Lord Hamilton con la figlia di Giacomo, Mary. Un suo antenato, il II Conte di Arran, era stato erede presunto al trono dalla morte del reggente il Duca di Albany sino alla nascita di Giacomo VI ed era stato reggente di Scozia durante l'assenza in Francia di Maria, regina degli Scozzesi.
Sposò nel 1656, nella chiesa di Corstorphine vicino a Edimburgo, William Douglas, I conte di Selkirk, un figlio minore di William Douglas, I marchese di Douglas. Selkirk fu creato Duca di Hamilton a vita, inclusi i titoli sussidiari relativi al Ducato de jure uxoris, e nel 1660, assunse il cognome Douglas-Hamilton. Tra il 1657 ed il 1673, la coppia ebbe 13 figli.
Dopo il suo matrimonio, la Duchessa e il marito gettarono le basi per quella che sarebbe stata la più grande residenza privata dell'emisfero occidentale, Hamilton Palace.
La residenza venne costruita sul luogo comunemente noto come Palace o The Orchard, dove già era presente una costruzione in forma di corte nei "Low Parks of Hamilton". Gli Hamilton avevano vissuto qui per diversi secoli sin dal XIV secolo.
Il progetto venne affidato dalla duchessa nel 1684 all'architetto James Smith il quale rimodellò la struttura esistente, rimuovendo la parte a sud della precedente costruzione per ingrandire l'intera struttura e farle prendere la tipica forma a U.
Altro lavoro portato avanti dalla Duchessa fu la costruzione di una nuova scuola a Hamilton (rinominata nel 1848 Hamilton Academy) che originariamente era stata pensata dal suo bisnonno John Hamilton, I marchese di Hamilton e posta presso la chiesa di Hamilton Palace già a fine Cinquecento. Nel 1714 la Duchessa presentò la sua nuova scuola all'amministrazione cittadina di Hamilton ed a tale uso essa rimase deputata sino al 1848, appunto, quando venne spostata in un nuovo edificio.
Dal matrimonio tra Anne e William Douglas nacquero:
