I am seeking information on Thomas "Pinky" Lee. He was a member of the Philadelphia hilldales or other Philadelphia team. I have a copy of an old newspaper article and photo of him in a group. This information would greatly help me as I put together a family tree for my children and now grandchild. You see, "Pinky" Lee is/was my grandfather and I have never met him.
