  FSR: Was Perez Perez any relation to Duran Duran? Or Ford B. Ford? http://law.justia.com/cases/federal...
Sep-08-12  Abdel Irada: <FSR: Was Perez Perez any relation to Duran Duran? Or Ford B. Ford?>

Let's not forget former UN Secretary General Boutros Boutros-Ghali. Or, for that matter, my old nemesis Maroth deMarothy.

Sep-08-12  Cibator: Maybe to Evel Knievel (or even his Australian cousin Oath K'nOath).
Sep-08-12  Caissanist: Perez's playing career seems to have ended quite abruptly in 1965--he didn't even play in the 1966 Olympiad, which was held in Havana. I wonder what happened; the Wikipedia entry just says that he stopped playing and devoted himself to teaching and running a magazine.

  perfidious: <Caissanist>: There are games attributed to Perez from Havana 1966 at http://www.365chess.com/players/Fra..., so it is curious that olimpbase does not list his participation.

While I have discovered numerous games which belong to this player at Perez, think I will wait before submitting any corrections on Havana.

Jan-05-14  Eduardo Bermudez: I played against F.J. Perez in ISLA chess Open, La Habana,1996.

  sachistu: Do we know what year Perez Perez emigrated to Cuba? I ask because F. Perez is listed among the participants in an international tournament at Tolbuhin (Dobrich) apparently right after the Varna 1962 olympiad.

In the cross table he is is listed as F. Perez (Cuba). However, Perez is not listed among the players at Varna. I'm speculating he may have been a non-playing member of the Cuban team (captain?). He finished 3rd at Tolbuhin behind Soos and S. Holm Pedersen who tied for first. Perez lost an interesting game with Soos. The game and cross table is in Revista de Sah, 1962 Issue 12, p185.

  Fusilli: <sachistu: Do we know what year Perez Perez emigrated to Cuba?> The Wikipedia entry for him in Spanish mentions that he played in the European Team Ch. of 1961 and then says that afterward ("posteriormente"), but without specifying exactly when, he moved to Cuba and won the Caribbean Zonal (Qualifier for the 1964 Amsterdam Interzonal) in 1963.
