I don't understand exactly what you are parameterizing - but you may find
this paper helpful:

New-Generation Amber United-Atom Force Field

Lijiang Yang, Chun-hu Tan, Meng-Juei Hsieh, Junmei Wang, Yong Duan, Piotr
Cieplak, James Caldwell, Peter A. Kollman,# and Ray Luo*

This united-atom forcefield is available in Amber 9. So, you can look in
the parameter files to see how residue data is assembled.

You might contact the authors to see if any automated scripts are
available to collapse the hydrogen charges onto the carbons.

One caveat: This forcefield currently lacks parameterization for
cross-linked cysteines.
