Biographical data
Name: Ide, Edward Godfrey  
Born: Sep. 1848
Died: 18 Dec. 1927
 
Notes:
The Chess Players' Quarterly Chronicle of Feb. 1869 (vol.1, p.154) lists a player named 'Ida' in the British Chess Association Handicap tournament of 1869, but this is an error for 'Ide', correctly listed on p.153 of the same issue. Gerard Killoran sent references for his full name, from The Law Reports: Queen's Bench Division, Vol. 1 1886, p.756, and baptism (13 Sep. 1848) and death records from ancestry.com.
