Hmm, promising that the one Mississippi team on the list is 1921-1923. Thank you very much. I'm also told he played for one of the Cardinals' farm teams. Maybe that's the Foundation team. The Greenwood Indians don't have any listed affiliation. My understanding of it, and this is just based on what I recall from Ken Burns, is that the Cardinals were the only major league team that really had an extensive farm system in those days, but I don't think the family member who told me about the St. Louis affiliation would have had any knowledge of that. Alright, I'm off-topic enough for now. I'll continue the investigation on my own.
