RONALD GEORGE DIXON ADDEY
(born Jun-11-1882, died Nov-05-1956, 74 years old) Ireland

[what is this?]

Ronald George Dixon Addey was born in Derry in 1882.

He was a civil engineer employed by the local government in the northwest of Ireland.

He was a notable chess player and around the time of World War One his name regularly appears as a player.

"Mr Dixon Addey belongs to Castlebar and is undoubtedly the best chess player in the West of Ireland. He has competed four times in the British Chess Federation tournaments. The first time was in 1909, when he entered the first class, but, not being accustomed to tourney play, he did not make as good a score as his play deserved. In 1910 he competed in the first class at Oxford, making a better score. In 1912 he played in the first class at Richmond and tied for third prize. Last year he competed at Chester in the major open tournament, and tied for fourth place."

(Belfast Newsletter, 6 May 1912) 1

He died in 1956.
