I added a brief mention of his continued medical work in the executive section, but it's hard to find a natural place for it since the sources don't make a big deal about it.

At some point, other teams must have formed, so that by 1859 there was a National Association? Maybe you should mention the formation of more teams. (If they played at Yale, they must have played at other colleges

Added a couple sentences in the executive section about the increase in the number of clubs, in places where the information fits well.
285: 126: 521: 52: 122: 75: 209:"The other committee member was Duncan F. Curry" - so there was only one person on the committee until Adams was placed on it? 411: 107: 99: 391: 312: 583: 232: 171: 150: 371: 493: 270: 579: 228: 167: 146: 263:

It meant where the items were in the family's home. That's now clarified.
