| J. E. Inglis |
 J. E. Inglis (forename unknown) was probably born in Scotland, although his place and date of birth remain unknown to us. * The forward probably joined Thistle in 1881. He made his first known appearance on Saturday, 31st December, 1881, in a 2-1 friendly win at home to Glasgow Thistle. There were no known goals for Inglis during his spell with Thistle. He played his last known game for the club on Tuesday, 3rd January, 1882, in a 4-1 friendly win away to Angus, having appeared for the Thistle on at least 3 occasions. His known club-list included only Partick Thistle. We don't know where or when Inglis died. *

Historian's note: We know from contemporary reports that Jock Inglis of Rangers guested for Thistle in 1882 and in 1884 on several occasions. Given this affinity, the chances of he and the here-quoted J. E. Inglis being one and the same seem good. Contributing to the possibility, Rangers did not play over the festive period covered by the 3 "holiday weekender" appearances attributed to J. E. Inglis. We will keep an eye out for any further i.d. clues.
