  GrahamClayton: 18...Qd3 19.Rd2 traps the Queen in the middle of the board. The player of the Black pieces is probably Emlen H Miller of Philadelphia:

  Naniwazu: <RookFile> I've done some research and it seems that Steinitz' opponent in this game was a certain Emlen H. Miller of the Philadelphia Chess Club where this game was played http://www.edochess.ca/players/p847... (not sure why but it gives the date as 1882). The game against Tal from 1988 could be Russell ('Rusty') Miller http://susanpolgar.blogspot.dk/2012.... The game against Corbett from 2003 could be Steven Craig Miller http://www.365chess.com/players/Ste.... Whether they are all related I haven't got a clue.
