Deseronto Baseball Club, 1950

Deseronto Baseball Club, 1950, accession 2008.05The Kimmett family donated this photograph to Deseronto Archives today, in memory of Don Kimmett. It depicts the manager, coach and team members of the Deseronto Baseball Club, who were Bay of Quinte League champions in 1950.

The team, from left to right and back to front were:
K. Brant, catcher; Don Kimmett, coach; Charlie Tinney, pitcher; J. Rodgers, centre field; F. Smith, catcher; W. Wood, manager; Gord Jackson, third base; D. Armitage, second base; K. Brennan, first base; G. Knight, right field; B. Doreen, pitcher; D. Sexsmith, short stop; P. Martin, left field

The caption on the photo only has first initials, so if you can help us with the full first names of the team, we'll be happy to fill those in.

A correction needs to be made.
The gentleman in the back on the far right is Gord Jackson, not George Jackson.
Gord Jackson was George Jackson's, my Grandfather's, youngest brother.

Thanks for taking the time to let us know Steve. I've made the change that you suggest.
