The 1940 census for ward 4, Jackson City, Jackson, MI has this family:
HAMMER, Carl age 42 b. MI occupation salesman
wife Gertrude age 35 b. MI
son Hugh age 16 b. MI
son Roland age 4 b. MI
dau Carlene age 1 b. MI
In 1930 in Jackson there's a 30 yr old Carl HAMMER, widowed, listed as brother in the household of Irvin & Ferda DORMAN.
In 1920 in Jackson there is a 21 yr old Carl HAMMER and a 20 yr old Hazel HAMMER living in the household of Charles and Gladys THOMAN.Their relationship is not listed.
There's a marriage record for Carl F. HAMMER, age 21, to Hazel NELSON, age 20, on 17=Sept-1919 in Rives Junction, Jackson, MI.Groom's parents were Fred HAMMER and Cara GARFIELD.Bride's parents were Andrew NELSON and Alice CARPENTER.
I think it is likely that Hazel is Carl's first wife and the mother of Hugh.
