Speculation on my part here, but I think Osborne Stadium was the WFC's first permanent home. It wouldn't surprise me if they were mostly itinerant before that, playing each game somewhere different... they probably would have been a pretty small time operation in those early days.
I suspect one of the histories written about the club, by Vince Leah, Bob Irving or others would probably hold the details.
As for the other clubs, I have no idea.
