Couldnt find in NSW records I do not know his age at the date of death. Around 56 yo He was the son of WILLIAM and ANNIE (ANNE) HAMILTON. (News about this couple would be good). I think Wm Leonard d 1901 , Hurstville he was son of William & Annie , Didnt leave a will In the 1903 NSW electoral roll Anne HAMILTON was living at 4 Queens St Edgecliff with both sons ......... Otto was a traveller and it says Leonard was a dentist HTH Bye MargM Sydney List Admin
