Description | The York Gazette, Dec. 5, 1865, reports the York Base Ball Club intends to play on thanksgiving afternoon. See also York Gazette, July 24, 1866. President of thus club in 1866 was Leander H. Myers (1840-84), who served in a short term volunteer company in Sept. 1862. Two of the club's directors (William H. Upp and John A. Beitzel) were also Union navy/army veterans. This is probably different from the National BBC of York, which in 1866 defeated the Shawnee of Columbia 59-11. York Gazette, Aug. 28, 1866. York had 11,003 residents in 1870. |
