Ran across this photo today, in the Schenectady Gazette (May 2, 1913). Love the plaid warmup jackets.
From L to R: William Wernecke (owner), Jesse Bragg, Grant Johnson, Mike Brown, William T. Smith, Cyclone Joe Williams, Leroy Grant, Judy Gans, Phil Bradley (captain), and Johnny Pugh.
This is just the roster at the beginning of the year; there would be plenty of changes through the season. Williams, Johnson, and Gans would defect (back) to the Lincoln Giants within a few weeks of this photo; Frank Wickware, Chappie Johnson, Knucks James, and Walter Ball would later join the Mohawks.
