Born on this day…

… 181 years ago.   (Sorry, nothing to do with Suffolk Chess.   Just thought it may be of interest!)

For the remainder of the summer, postings here will be less frequent.   Important events, such as the progress of the County First Team in the Minor Counties Championship, and the Suffolk County Chess Association AGM, will of course be reported on.

If anyone has had any interesting games, or positions, during the season, please send them to

  1. There used to be some doubt over Steinitz's birthdate but it has now been established that it was 14th May 1836. See for example his passport application here: chesshistory.com/winter/winter84.html#7149._Passport_application_by_Steinitz
