jnpope has kibitzed 6905 times to chessgames   [more...]

Oct-12-25 Thomas Mazuchowski   jnpope: Sad to hear that. I always enjoyed my brief chats with Tom. His game vs Fischer is probably lost to the sands of time.      Oct-11-25 John Jenkins   jnpope: Thanks. Nice to scratch that one off my list.      Oct-10-25 Louis Goldsmith   jnpope: Gaige has him born in: Port Phillip, Victoria, Australia Newspaper reports on his death state he was born: Melbourne, Victoria, Australia A family tree at Ancy.com gives: St. George in the East, Middlesex, England Father: Henry Goldsmith Mother: Sarah Landeshut (with the ...      Oct-08-25 Chessgames - Sports    jnpope: LFG Tigers!      Oct-07-25 Biographer Bistro    jnpope: Assuming the "J. Jenkins" listed as a problem solver/correspondent is the same man, it would appear John Jenkins died between June 1889 and September 1890. Perhaps someone with access to the British Ancy.com materials can check for a death record in that time-span (again, assuming ...      Oct-01-25 Chessgames - Politics    jnpope: I feel both sides have failed the American people. I'm having shirts made for the upcoming election cycle: Support our troops Military coup 2026!      Sep-28-25 Hans Lindehn    jnpope: I saw that he had returned to Sweden for some time before "permanently" settling in the US, which would have reset his residency "counter". It was unclear to me if 1873 was a permanent move or a lengthy visit, but it was clear he had permanently moved to the US by 1876.      Sep-26-25 Zukertort vs Wood, 1874    jnpope: Ha! I was just going to ask if you knew the name of the French café at 74 Ludgate Hill.      Sep-25-25 3rd CCA Congress, Malvern (1872)   jnpope: Cohen did not play in Malvern 1872 (main event or handicap), but he did exist at this time apparently, Cohen , which may explain how the ILN misread Coker.      Sep-25-25 Chessgames - Guys and Dolls    jnpope: Cherie Lunghi (Excalibur)

Source "Allgemeine Sport-Zeitung, 23 September 1900, p. 1060" Mar-03-23    jnpope: Thanks! I always appreciate an earlier source. Apr-01-23    mifralu: Pillsbury vs Buz, 1900 < Richard Buz >, Chairman of the Augsburg Chess Club, and the game is missing in your book. https://static.s123-cdn-static-d.co... page 3 Apr-01-23    jnpope: Do you have a source for that Pillsbury-Buz game? Apr-02-23    mifralu: No source so far, but an early source for Halprin vs Pillsbury, 1900 https://books.google.de/books?id=vX... Apr-04-23    jnpope: Thanks! Apr-12-23    MissScarlett: http://www.chessarch.com/excavation... Your <Field> column dated June 11th 1853 should be June 25th. There was no column for June 11th that I can spot. And your July 9th is actually July 2nd. Apr-12-23    jnpope: Thanks. Those JGW scrapbooks keep screwing me over. I should probably so a complete audit of the scrapbook clippings I used at some point. Apr-13-23    MissScarlett: One more - July 30 1853 should be August 6. Apr-14-23    jnpope: Fixed. Apr-15-23    MissScarlett: October 15th and 22nd 1853 should be the 22nd and 29th respectively. Apr-16-23    jnpope: Thanks again. Fixed. Apr-20-23    MissScarlett: Your May 20th 1854 is May 27th. Your July 29th is July 15th. Having trouble finding right date of your May 27th. Apr-20-23    MissScarlett: There's a missing column - just a single problem - from July 22nd. Apr-22-23    jnpope: <Having trouble finding right date of your May 27th.> Try page 515?
