Little Mamie Hamilton can be found as the youngest child of William and Perry Hamilton when the census of 1900 was taken. At the time, she was four years old and living in the area of Howard, Taylor County Georgia. It gave her birth date as August, 1895. Her father was doing some saw mill work as well as farming. She then had five siblings living with them, however, accorsing to the census, her mother had birthed two additional children who were no longer living. Those with her now were Thomas 21, who was also working at the saw mill, Lela 18, Flem 17, Gene 14, and Mattie nine.
Sometime prior to her 14th birthday, Mamie's father William passed away and by 1910, all her siblings except for older brother Gene were gone. They were then living with her widowed mother still in the area of Howard. Her brother was selling real estate, Mamie attended school.
A few years later, at the age of sixteen, Mamie wed Mr. Clyde R. Hill and the couple moved off to Houston County near the town of Marshallville where in 1920 they can be found living along Marshallville Road. There, her husband Clyde was working as a watchman for a local crate-building company.
Mamie was now twenty-four and had two children of her own, little Celia Ralph, who was five and two year old Hugh.
Ten years later, in 1930, they had moved across the county line into Peach County, where they could be found in the city of Ft. Valley. Here Clyde had found employment for the railroad and was working as a "pumper". They live on Railroad Street in that town. They now had three additional children, a daughter, Mamie who was 10 and three more sons, Flem Edwin 7, William Roy 4, and baby Marvin Carl who was one.
Per the 1940 census, the family was living still in Ft. Valley. Her husband was still working for the railroad and a few of their children were still living with them, including her son Ralph who had wed and brought his wife to live with them, and then there was her daughter Mamie, and sons Flem, William Carl, and Marvin. (Sadly, her son Hugh was killed in a boating accident in October of 1939.)
