Early Tomato varieties:
(source) https://www.gardenguides.com/97574-tomato-plant-varieties.html First Early Red :
'Early Cascade' is a variety that produces fruit in 55 days and is resistant to verticillium wilt... 4 oz. fruits, trailing habit, not bush.

'Sub Arctic Plenty' is a fast-growing, determinate plant, which means it stops growing when flowers develop.
The tomatoes, which are 3 or 4 oz., are harvested at 45 days, making it one of the fastest-producing varieties.
On the down side, this variety is not resistant to any of the common diseases of tomatoes,
hence the possibility of total variety crop failure.

'Early Girl': Indeterminate, early, hybrid, slicing tomato, VF resistant.

Another good source of information for early season varieties can be found at:

Don't let the name fool you, however, they only sell plants, and not seed.
The list of early tomato varieties is, at least, a starting point and a good early variety resource.
