Talk:Carroll Wilson Rasin

I find myself rereading THTGB tonight to cheer myself up about my team's dismal home stretch run by reminding myself that baseball is forever. Came to Carroll Wilson Rasin here. Googled him. The first two links lead back here. The rest of the first page shows geneology records, which is extremely common for "historical"-sounding names. (A few of them do insist that he was born in Maryland in 1881, and one further insists that he married Kate Sewell Dangerfield in 1911.) The second page has a passing reference to Baltimore's Federal League team. An image search reveals nothing.

I'm satisfied he's a historical figure based on those, but I really am at a loss as to why so little info should be available about him. The lives of comparably prominent citizens of American cities of that era are usually pretty well documented. Turtle Fan (talk) 04:32, September 10, 2012 (UTC)
