For many years Ollie Miller tantilized me with a list of the Carl Hagenbeck elephants claiming to have come from H-W elephant man John Worden but when produced contained unlikely names like "Satan" and "Hercules". It also claimed that two were Africans.

An African named Jeanette was on the Wallace show in 1890. Another, unknown name, was there in 1892.
