William Frederick "Bones" Ely (June 7, 1863 – January 10, 1952) was a shortstop in Major League Baseball. He was born in North Girard, Pennsylvania.[1]
During the 1904 season, Bones Ely along with his brother Ben Ely purchased the Portland Browns of the Pacific Coast League.[2] Bones Ely managed 33 games that season before resigning his position on May 16.[3] The Ely brothers sold their shares of the team to Walter McCredie and William Wallace McCredie before the end of the season.[4]
Ely died at the age of 88 in Imola, California.[1] His remains were cremated[1] and placed in the Chapel of the Chimes columbarium in Oakland.[5]
