  Honza Cervenka: Chessgames.com, I have found four Schorn's games played against Lasa and uploaded them in your PGN Upload Utility
Oct-16-15  thomastonk: I've changed the date of birth: instead of 16 Oct 1803, it is 16 Oct 1800 according to Mario Ziegler in "Karl" 4/2014; Ziegler's source was Schorn's baptismal certificate.
