A few more historical player issues

[Castleview]

Foxy Smith (1-1-1890) - I suspect he may be a duplicate of Don Smith who played for Victoria that season (1912-13). Hugh Lehman was the regular New Westminster goalie. It looks like Smith may have been an emergency loan for 1 game possibly.

George Rochon (24-5-1892) - it's likely he is a duplicate of Joel Rochon, the confusion arising from the press anglicising his name when he played in the PCHA.

Frank Kelly (1-1-1893) - this is a duplicate of Fred Kelly (14-6-1887) who also went by 'Frank'.

Ed Adams (1-1-1898) - he is a duplicate of Jack Adams who was wrongly credited with an 'own goal' while playing against Victoria in 1920-21.

Frank Sullivan (26-7-1898) - he was a goalie for the 1928 Canadian Olympic team.

Christopher Rodgers (1-1-1922) - he was a goalie on 1948 US Olympic team (mentioned in other thread).

Note : this is based on a game which started life in FHM7, so may have been fixed already.

Not sure about that, the game Foxy Smith played in seems to be on January 4, 1913 (he's listed with 10 GA in one game played, and that's the only time New West gave up 10 goals in a game that season), and Don Smith played for Montreal in Toronto on that day. There's also a player named Foxy Smith mentioned in passing in the Victoria Times-Colonist of November 20, 1912, as one of a group of players working out together, which also included a few other guys who played in New Westminster that season.

George Rochon (24-5-1892) - it's likely he is a duplicate of Joel Rochon, the confusion arising from the press anglicising his name when he played in the PCHA.

Separate guys, George Emile Rochon and Joseph Joel George Rochon. They were actually teammates in Ontario for a few years and then played in the west. But Joel was on the NOHL 1st-all star team in 1910 and George on the second team the same year, which seems pretty solid evidence it's two different guys. SIHR also has pictures of both and, while fuzzy, they don't look similar.

Frank Kelly (1-1-1893) - this is a duplicate of Fred Kelly (14-6-1887) who also went by 'Frank'.

Fixed.

Ed Adams (1-1-1898) - he is a duplicate of Jack Adams who was wrongly credited with an 'own goal' while playing against Victoria in 1920-21.

Fixed.

Frank Sullivan (26-7-1898) - he was a goalie for the 1928 Canadian Olympic team.

That's Joe Sullivan, his brother, although Frank played for that team as well (as a winger.)

Christopher Rodgers (1-1-1922) - he was a goalie on 1948 US Olympic team (mentioned in other thread).

Fixed. Birthdate was wrong as well.

Any chance you could PM me a copy of the image of George Emile Rochon so I can make a facegen of him?

Also spotted another incorrect dob , Jack McKenzie (22-7-1930) , but FHM has him as 30-7-1922.

Ross Webley (5-2-1963) appears in my game in the July 1st 1976 draft pool as a 13 year-old.

The 'real' Ross Webley has dob 7-3-1949.

I'm not sure what is going on there?

Odd, Webley seems to have the correct birthdate in the database now, although I may have fixed that since the release.

McKenzie's an Eliteprospects data error, I'll let them know.
