[4][6][2] After Oneida disbanded, former members established the Harvard University Football Club, which continued to play under the Boston game rules.
However, he grew tired of these disorganized games so in 1862 he organised the "Oneida Football Club of Boston", choosing players from not only Dixwell's but from other schools in order to form a strong and competitive team.
The team was composed of the following players: Edward L. Arnold, Robert A. Boit, Edward Bowditch, Walter Brooks, George Davis, Robert M. Lawrence, Gerrit S. Miller (captain), Francis G. Peabody, Winthrop S. Scudder, Louis Thies, Alanson Tucker, R. Clifford Watson, Huntington F. Wolcott (Dixwell); J. Malcolm Forbes, and John P. Hall (Boston English High School); and James D'Wolf Lovett (Boston Latin School).
Miller was elected president and Clifford Watson secretary and treasurer, and their only uniform was a red silk handkerchief tied around the head, knotted behind.
On 7 November 1863 Oneida played vs the combined English High and Boston Public Latin Schools.
[6][13] On November 7, 1923, a bronze plaque was unveiled in honor of Oneida's founder and captain, Gerrit Smith Miller, at the Noble and Greenough School.
[6] Former Oneida player Winthrop S. Scudder wrote a history of the team named Gerrit Smith Miller: An Appreciation, published in 1924.
