Battling Joe Daley, Global ID 255667

Post by mmac1196 »

Hello,

I am the grand niece of Battling Joe Daley, Featherweight boxer 255667. I
have researched some of his bouts in the Pittsburgh, PA area newspapers.
Unfortunately, his surname was always spelled Dailey instead of Daley.

You can find them on:

http://news.google.com/newspapers

There is a newspaper article Fistic Foibles about Battling Joe Daley's bout with Kid Stinger published in the Pittsburgh Press Newspaper, December 14, 1912.

Some of his other mentions are:
The Gazette Times December 7, 1913
The Gazette Times September 8, 1914
The Gazette Times January 13 1915

I also have a personal photo, not a boxing photo but, am still working on a "proof of identification".
