He was in Santa Cruz, California in the mid-1890s, but he turns up again in New Orleans in the spring of 1898 before playing with Shreveport that year. At that time, the papers said he played in Michigan in 1897. I've also found references to playing in Spokane in the late 1890s, and he was in Duluth for a few seasons in the early 1900s. At some point he returned to California, where he had a billiard hall in Calistoga.

Here's his TSN Contract Card.
