Default Winslow, Illinois
GGterps & Scott Garner,

I have devled a little into the Winslow ticket, I have not found much yet. I do think the White Stockings may have been Located in Illinois. If you look at the names on the ticket (Stewart, McManigal, & Shippy) you will notice town names are listed to the right of each name. (Winslow, Lena, & McConnells Grove) These towns are all located in Illinois, Lena & McConnells are very close to Winslow, Illinois.

All are very close to the border of Wisconsin, so the Team still could have been located there? My guess is Illinois??
