His full name was Jeremiah Joseph, but he was called Jerry or sometimes Jerre. Every now and then his name does show up online and it's always fun to see! Thank you for posting!
Thank you so much for your very welcome post. Yes your response is very appropriate and informative.

If you are able to share an image of your great grandfather I am sure it would be greatly appreciated by the baseball community. Thank you.
