May-06-05		soberknight: Am I the only person who thinks that the 1801 Rousseau and the 1845 Rousseau are two different people?

May-06-05		SBC: <soberknight> Since Eugène Rousseau wasn't born until about 1810 (in France), that's a good possibility. Before moving to New Orleans, Rousseau had played Kieseritzky in 100 games at the Café de la Régence, losing by a slim margin. He died in 1870.

Jun-25-06		sneaky pete: This (imcomplete) game was played (as well as the other 1801 Rousseau game) around 1680 by Roussereau.

Feb-02-08		wolfmaster: Rousseau was born in 1810 and NN was 211. Weird.
