Canobie's history page (http://www.canobie.com/history.php) claims the Yankee Cannonball was called the "Greyhound" on initial installation.

RCDB lists an even earlier one, a figure-8 side-friction coaster that was there from 1902 to 1935, but there is not much information about it online.

There were some other roller coasters there that are no longer standing. Some of my readers will remember the standard S.D.C. Galaxi coaster (briefly renamed "Rockin' Rider"), a transportable compact steel coaster, that stood where the Frisbee is now; I never saw it, but Sam rode it once. In the early Sixties there was a small Wild Mouse coaster about where the Skater is now, and there was a very small oval kiddie coaster in the Seventies and early Eighties.
