Fessenden would become an umpire in the 1880s, with a stint in the National League in 1888 and 1889. He also managed a brief stint with Syracuse in the American Association in 1890.
Currently identified as just Fessenden.

"Lee, the excellent St. Louis amateur, refuses to make base ball a business, and will accept no offers from club managers." (Guelph Daily Mercury and Advertiser, July 31, 1877)
Lee from St. Louis was actually Leonidas Funkhauser, a Princeton college ball player who played one game as "Lee" with St. Louis in 1877. Not sure if this is the same Lee who appeared in a box score with London on August 29, 1877.
