Hamilton is a sports lover, a demon at croquet, where his favorite team was the Dallas Fancypants. He worked as a general haberdasher for 30 years, but was forced to give up the career he loved due to his keen attention to detail.

Hamilton Lindley was always there to help relatives and friends with household projects, coached different sports or whatever else people needed him for.
