Myron was born in St. Johnsville, Montgomery County, New York on November 30, 1875, and was living with his parents and siblings in Canajoharie, Montgomery County, New York in the 1880 census.
I was not able to locate Myron in 1900, but his wife Mabel was living in Canajoharie, New York. Myron was probably playing minor league baseball in Canada.
Myron was living with his wife Mabel in Canajoharie, New York in the 1910 census.
In 1915, Myron, his wife Mabel, and daughter Ruth were living in Gloversville, New York at 75 W. 8th Ave. Myron's profession was a Pool Room Proprietor.
In 1920, Myron, his wife Mabel, their daughter Ruth, and their nephew William Vosburgh were living at 37 Reed Street in Canajoharie, New York. Myron's occupation was a laborer in a factory, most likely the Beech-Nut Packing Co. His obituary in December 1936, states that he was working at the Beech-Nut Packing Co. in Canajoharie, New York when sticken with a heart attack.
Myron was living in Canajoharie, New York in the 1930 census.
Myron was a professional baseball player from 1898 thru 1911 beginning his career in Canada and ended it in Louisvlle. When playing with the Boston Red Sox (1905-1907), Myron had a record 12 triples as a switch hitter in 1906. Myron obtained the nickname of "Moose", however, everyone in the Canajoharie area knew him by the nickname "Kitsie". I have tried several methods to find out how he obtained the nickname "Moose", including internet search, contacting the Red Sox, and checking baseball reference guides. I've struck out on all attempts. Myron only weighed about 175 lbs. and was 6'1" tall when playing with Boston, but that was considered a rather large person in the early 1900's, therefore this could be the reason he was given the nickname of Moose.
I located information about the family and their final resting place at the New York State History & Archives in Fonda, New York. I also researched the Fort Plain, New York Cemetery records and found that Myron and Mabel have a dual headstone. Myron, his wife Mabel, and a 3 day old baby boy are buried in the Fort Plain Cemetery, Fort Plain, New York. They may not have named their infant son.
