information on town, independent, and semi-pro teams is really hard to find pre-1900. not much at all west of Mississippi river until you get to the coast.
i can't offer much help, but I suggest trying the PFRA (professional football researcher's association).

I know he was paid because he always said so. He was very proud of playing football. But I was pretty young, and don't remember much else about him.
