Looking at the land records and homestead records tells me that George actually lived in what is now Jones county. There is a WW1 Draft Registration for George Hammond. Also on ancestry.com I found marriage dates for George H, Hammond and Ella Gertrude Lanyon, June 21, 1914, Lyman County. I found him in the 1910 and 1920 census, but couldn't find any of them in 1930. Check out the genweb sites for Jones and Lyman counties, http://usgenweb.com/ , but there isn't much for Hammond. This was just a short check of ancestry.com, our genealogy website and the county genweb sites. Please let me know if there is anything else I can help with.
