Dutton Park FC in the early days of the SANFL?

[Sojourner]

Reading some historical items over the history of the SANFL I have found references to a "Dutton Park" FC which particpated in the early days of the league, I cant find a great deal of information on them though, does anyone have anything that might shed some light on their history with the SANFL?

I think they were known as Kapunda. Leaping Lindner will know for sure.
