Likely they were different people who re-named themselves after more famous black athletes.

Sam Langford was mainly an East Coast guy. I don't think he would be mucking around in Utah for very long.

Now Joe Jeannette, he was one of the Big 4 Black Heavyweights of the time, known to play baseball.
