Didn’t he spell his name “ Hughie”?

He apparently used both. On many of his baseball cards, including the T202, it is spelled “Hughey” and in the Cornell yearbook he used “Hughey” - but yes, Hughie is a more commonly used spelling. Interesting that he would change or switch back and forth.

Hey Joe,
Wanted to thank you again. Found this “Hughey” autograph in a recently acquired Cornell scrapbook after seeing your post. This particular signature was in a Cornell banquet program dated February 21, 1900. I’ve been doing a little research since and it appears he didn’t switch his signature to “Hughie” until his time in Detroit. According to Hugh Jenning’s biography by Jack Smiles he was primarily referred to as “Hughey” by friends and in newspaper articles until around 1900. Was curious if anyone here has seen a “Hughie” Jennings signature pre-1906? Mark Last edited by cfhofer; 04-19-2024 at 08:31 PM. |
