Do you have access to the 1901-1905 city directory for Birmingham, Alabama? Need look up for Joseph Hamilton... he was according to the 1898 or 1899 directory living in Smithfield [Birmingham], Alabama... I am trying to narrow the search for him and his family and when they left town... At some point they ended up in California by 1915... Also, search Joseph Hamilton, 1906 - 1915 city directory for Baltimore Maryland.... also, maybe... Clarence Hamilton 1913-1915... Please if you can run a check.... I do not know when or where Joseph Hamilton died... his wife and children were living in California by 1915 or 1916.... Mark
