   They may have performed at a Miss Wisconsin pageant during their time   
   together. After a little research,   
    I believe there was a man named Ted Anderson that was also part of the group   
   that put out a promo 45 on Columbia called House on the Hill / Our Snowflake   
   Dreams. I am really interested in finding out anything about The Hammer   
   Singers and groups that    
   spawned after their inception. I also have reason to believe that they may   
   also have something to do with "If I Had A Hammer".

   Wassau, Wi.  Ted's father was Grant Anderson.  You can reach me at   
   dcupples@memphis.edu if you wish to know more.
