Dec-20-06    jaime gallegos: this man defeated Steinitz, Blackburne, and Morphy ! he deserve a biography on this place ! Dec-20-06    keypusher: <jaime gallegos> This man made up most of his famous "wins." <SBC> could probably write an interesting bio, though. Jan-02-09    YJGYJ: I agree that Deacon needs a Bio but even a search on the internet has very few answers as to who he was. Jul-23-09    myschkin: . . . Frederic Deacon (1829-1875) from Belgium.
