Biographical data
Name: Perry-Smith, Oliver  
   Also known as: Captain Oliver Perry-Smith
Born: 1860
Died: 11 Feb. 1899
 
Notes:
Hilbert's book on Shipley has 'P. Smith' on p.146, but Captain Oliver Perry-Smith on p.199, where his date of death is given as 9-02-1899. Hilbert's biography of Kemeny says he died 11-02-1899 at age 38, so he would have been born in 1860 or 1861.
