Missing State Footballers 1879-2010

Postby Mark_Beswick » Sun Nov 28, 2010 3:20 pm

The following are players I am missing Christian Names for that represented SA in State Games 1879-2010 (I have got all of the others and there are well over 1000 players on this list)

1879 - J. Brophy
1880 - J. Stirling
1880-1881 T. Moloney (Maloney?)
1881 - E. W Cox
1881 - H. MacNamara (McNamara?)
1890-1892 H Hamilton (Aka Goodie) - Was in Western Australia in the 1930's
1894 - W. Hall
1899 - P. Fitzpatrick (Aka Grubby)
1903 - W. Huston (Mickey)

Considering I have 175 players representing the state up to 1905, this isn't many left to find. With some luck, Goodie Hamilton will be solved soon.
fn. In 1881, I am 4 players short of the side that played victoria in Game 2 at EMCG.
In 1914, there may have been a late change to the side that played Tasmania, but access to the referee or arrow is not available in the SA State Library to check.

Any help appreciated

Hi Mark

Can you confirm J for Stirling and T for Maloney

I have recently completed reading all newspapers for 1880 and have A J and W for Stirling.

He joined South Park from Bendigo.

From all newspapers I have no initial for Maloney also from Victoria who played with South Adelaide.

I have just completed all match reports and player, match statistics and profiles for 1880 and will shortly update all records for 1880 season before publishing which will add to 1877-79 seasons now fully researched and published.

in 2011 I will further research 1881 so hopefully may uncover names and missing state players for that season

Many thanks in anticipation
