Now that I have looked beyond just HPB I have so far found two people in the early Theosophical Society (prior to AAB) who spoke of a planet Vulcan. I have also seen some references (which I haven't yet been able to confirm) that this might have been a secret until Sinnett "spilled the beans", as one commentator put it.

There is more and more evidence I think though that shows a discussion of a planet "Vulcan" in the Theosophical Society preceded AAB's association with Theosophy.

I don't think there has been any question about this. It's not been a secret that HPB and others have mentioned or taught about Vulcan. I never assumed that the planet Vulcan was a revelation original with AAB.
