Burton's the only other one I think.
Burton Swifts - Div 2 1892-1900
Burton Wanderers - Div 2 1894-97
Burton Albion - Div 3 2009 -
In fact, strictly speaking, Burton have had four clubs, as Swifts and Wanderers combined to form Burton United, who were in the league from 1901-07.
Right, I'll get me anorak.
