The Islanders are very sure, who it was that brought football to their island. And the same applies to the founder in 1899 of their oldest club, Reykjavik's KR. The latter was Frank McGregor, a Scottish engineer, of whom nothing more is known. The former four years earlier in 1895 was a twenty-two year old, James B. Ferguson, said to be from Glasgow, a gymnast as well as a footballer, who stayed a year, working for a printer again in the capital and of whom we even have a picture, ball and all. But once more he, his origins and fate have been and remain otherwise elusive. But there is perhaps one possibility - a long-shot. In June 1873 a James Ferguson was born in Anderston in the city, his father also James, his mother Jane Baird, known as Jane B. Ferguson. But, whilst he was born in Glasgow James Jnr. was raised in Paisley, on King St., in the centre of the football-crazy town. The family was there in the censuses of 1881 and 1891. But, whilst he too was there in the former, aged eight and at school, he was not in the latter nor after that, with where he went unknown.
