Genny Kenslow's maternal grandfather was Lorenzo Clare Patterson.  He played outfield for Ark City (Kansas) Grays in 1908, Guthrie (Oklahoma)Senators in 1909, drafted by Cincinnati in 1909, Ft. Wayne (Indiana) 1910, Quincy (California) 1910, Burlington (California) 1911, Kewanee (California) 1911, Oakland Oaks PCL 1911 & 1912.  Was drafted to St. Louis for 1913 but was not able to play for them.  Contracted TB and died March 1913.  He led the PCL league in stolen bases (he didn't need to steal, he evidently was swift around the bases) had a batting average from 350 to over 400.  He was the "comedian" of the PCL league and was so well thought of that a double header benefit game was held to raise money for him when he got sick.  He died when Genny's mother was 17 months old.

 

Genny looking for baseball cards from the Zeenut series and Home Run Kisses. She also would appreciate any information on him.
