Notes: |
Di Felice gives matches for these two in 1849, 1850 and 1851, with scores (for Shumov) +1-2, +2-1 and +2-1, respectively. Games in the Chess Player's Chronicle and Illustrated London News (29 June 1850, p.459) may correspond to the first and third of these matches. The situation is not at all clear. I do not know whether these games were considered a formal match. |
