    Did the WPA keep a list of all the companies &
    especially the workers? I’m doing research and would like
    to know if a person I knew of, WILLIAM CURTIS HAMILTON, of Parkersburg, WV may have worked there?
    He was born in 1920;so, he may have been hired as a cement finisher or such trade? Let me know if you come across such a person. Thanks. G.Dalton [email protected] Sciotoville, OH
