1868 Hancock First National Baseball Team |
 |
|
This sports team photo, the oldest yet found for Hancock, is labeled as the 1868 Hancock First National Baseball Team, with member identifications given as follows: [lower row, L-R]: Jas. Trembath; A.J. Scott; F.D. Meads (Team Captain); J.V Trembath; O. Kumath . [top row, L-R]: J. Bitttenbender; A. Brockway; W.M. Harry; J. Johnson . The Hancock Club toured the Upper Peninsula in 1871, becoming the U.P. baseball Champions, in the process, for that year. Information about 1868 & 1869 sports is sketchy, as a disastrous fire in 1869 wiped out a major part of Hancock. Our sincere thanks to the Michigan Tech Copper Country Archives for making this photo available, and for their help in the information research. |
