Keep in mind, I'm only talking about "9 Inning" perfect games, so none of the seven inning ones. And also only Major league affiliated minor leagues, or legit minor leagues from the old days... I know some of the old guys may be impossible to find anything of signed, but it would be fun to try...

So far I've only been able to gather information on 10 minor league "9 inning perfect games"...Ok, we're up to 33 now(still need to do some homework on a few of these though), plus a few Negro Leaguers, with more to come.

Roy Castleton(8/17?/1905)
Kaiser Wilhelm(7/9/1906)*unsure about length*
Walter Johnson(6/9/1907)*unsure about length*don't know if "Idaho State League" should count*
Chick Evans(7/??/1908)*unsure about length*
Chester Carmichael(8/9/1910)
Jake Northrop(6/14/1911)

Any info that would add to this list would be greatly appreciated. I'll gladly update all additions to this list as it becomes available for easier reference just in case anyone else in interested in the subject.

David,
Walter Johnson did throw a 9 inning perfect game on June 9, 1907. This was "Johnson's 2nd consecutive no-hitter and he struck out 18 in a 11-0 Weiser rout of the Emmett Prune Pickers" according to Henry Thomas in his great book about his grandfather Walter entitled "Walter Johnson- Baseball's Big Train" from 1995.

I hope this helps.
