  • George Heubel, 1869 1b
  • Isaac Wilkins 1869 ss,of
  • Hicks Hayhurst, 1869 of

That is three regulars in one season or the other and three subs. Relying on memory too, I give red links to the major leaguers. --P64 (talk) 23:42, 15 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Going all the way back to 1865 for this team, Wilkins was a regular 1865-1868; Hayhurst a regular 1865-1866 and a sub 1867-1868. There were five more not yet listed regulars and four more subs.

  • Patsy Dockney, 1866 c,of

The 1865 team already challenged the Brooklyn Atlantics on even terms but it seems premature to add red links. Wilkins and Hayhurst are the obvious candidates. --P64 (talk) 00:02, 16 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
