Larry, I am not in any way related to Hamiltons but once assisted another researcher in locating some Hamiltons and they appear to be among the ones you seek. I am omitting that person's name and communication here because I am not sure that he/she would care for it to be shared. What is left is my research notes. I hope they help you.
