    What did the Wright brothers do in 1869?

    		In 1869, Wilbur was two and Orville was not yet born, so I'm somewhat perplexed by the question.

    		Perhaps daddy means a different pair of Wright siblings?

    		George and Harry Wright took what was then called the Cincinnati Red Stockings professional, the first fully professional baseball team.
