Answer This answer was borrowed from a thread on the GunBroker.com website. The answer was posted by a gentleman who is a collector of old shotguns. I do not claim authorship nor authoritative knowledge.
There were two "WH Hamilton" shotguns. From c.1875-1883 or so, the shotguns were imported from Belgium. They were external hammer shotguns of average quality for the time. In the early 1900s, Thomas Leary was an active importer of these guns, now made by Dumoulin with the WH Hamilton tradename. They were similar to the earlier ones, but with some engraving on the locks.
The WH Hamilton tradename was finished when Leary closed up in 1904. Dumoulin may have continued until the 1930s.
As you read so often in posts regarding these old guns, it is absolutely NOT safe to shoot with any type of modern ammunition.
