Overview

The Negro Southern League of 1920 was formed in early March. started and ended with eight teams. One of them, the Charleston Seagulls, had difficulty around mid-season and the franchise and team were transferred to Knoxville in early July. Presently the Knoxville team is referred to as the Appalachians, some newspaper writers of the times called the new team the Orphans, and at times the Pioneers.
