Description

From Protoball Entry #1860.56 – Three Hartford CT Base Ball Clubs on the Move

The Alligator, Rough and Ready, and Independent Base Ball Clubs announced meetings on a late October day. Hartford Daily Courant, October 27, 1860. Accessed via subscription search, May 21, 2009.

Same Oct. 11, 1860 has the Alligator Club playing the High School (Rough and Ready) BBC an 8 on 8 game at the park, to 25 tallies.

We do not know if these clubs played by Association rules.

Query: Hartford was wicket country; but do we know of any earlier base ball clubs in the area?
