Biographical data
Name: Jakobsson, Harry  
   Also known as: Harry Jacobsson
Born: 1904
Died: 1950
 
Notes:
His death at age 45 was reported in the Jan.-Feb. 1950 issue of Tidskrift för Schack (p.48), so I am guessing that he died at the beginning of 1950 and was born in 1904, though there is a slight chance that he could have been born in 1905 or died in late 1949.
