Hamilton Descendants - Photos and Maps

1/1/2021

 

Organization of this Blog Format Page:

This webpage is organized into sections, and this top section includes an Index.  Each "section" will be separately addressable with a unique URL address so that readers can use the index to "jump" to the section they find of most interest.

One section is for maps and/or documents that may be of general interest, and that will cover all the descendant family groups.

Photos must, as much as possible, answer the question of what, who, when, and where.  Photos that need repairs, refinishing, colourization etc. may be sent to Keith, but need to answer the prerequisites identified above.
