Ok Dustan,

Here is what I have found so far... Maybe the photo below includes your uncle? There is not a date attached to the photo, but I have included a link from which these photos came. Perhaps they can help you. I will see what else I can find, as I "love to hunt".

I really like the second photo! The graphics at the bottom are just great. The London Midway Ball Club apparently was just up the road from your Avon Team. A nice early photo (1891) that I would love to have.

Hope this helps in your search!
