We have been unable to find any trace of H. Amos; however we think it might be Amos Haymer who is listed as a commercial traveller in the Sheffield directory of 1925.  His address was 112 Firth Park Crescent.  (George E. Haymer, also a commercial traveller, was listed at the same address in 1922.)  Amos Haymer (more often pronounced Hamer) was born in Halifax in 1887, the son of a corn miller.  In the 1939 Census, he was at the same address, but now worked as a textile engineers’ representative and was also involved with conveyor belting.  Amos Hamer, of 112 Firth Park Crescent, died on 12 February 1969, leaving £6,099.
