Some early male American lawn tennis players

[newmark401]

Using a variety of sources, I've been able to find a good deal of information on a number of early American lawn tennis players. However, I've had some difficulty in finding anything on certain players, all of whom competed in the early decades of the sport (circa 1880-1900).

I'm looking for a date and place of birth and a date and place of death for the following players as well their middle name (in a number of cases I've added the university they attended):

Clarence R. Budlong (Brown)
--

Edwin P. Fischer
--

Arthur E. Foote (Yale)
--

Raymond D. Little (Princeton)
--

Stephen C. Millett
--

Charles P. Hubbard (Stanford)
--

Carr B. Neel
Samuel R. Neel

These two players were brothers.
--

Howard A. Taylor (Harvard)
--

Samuel G. Thompson (Princeton)
-----

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This might be Clarence Budlong - http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GSln=Budlong&GSiman=1&GSst=42&GSsr=41&GRid=57897404&  Various sites indicate that he was playing for Brown in the late 1890's, so the age looks like it may be right.
