Good-morning Helen, I'm not sure if I can help you but I think I might be able to. My grandfather is a Hamilton, born in Pushmataha, Oklahoma and is currently living in Ceres. The names you mention are very familiar with me and he says there is Choctaw in our family. I will look through my records and see what I can come up with and if indeed our two lines match. I will let you know what I find out within a couple of days.
