Biographical data Name: Dufresne, Gustav   Born: 1829 Died: 1905   Notes: Sissa of Jan. 1864 has 'J. Dufresne' of Rotterdam, in Paris on his way to Batavia, but this is an error for 'G. Dufresne', as pointed out by G. Dufresne himself in a letter to Sissa (p.324). Gustav Dufresne was a nephew of Jean Dufresne.   References Books    Cornil, Le Café de la Régence, page 116    Edgar, Liverpool Chess Club, page 48, 83    Forster, Amos Burn, page 958    Harding, Steinitz in London, page 232 Periodicals    [BLL], 24 May 1863, page supp.1    [CPM], vol. 2, no. 11, Nov. 1864, page 351    [CPM], vol. 1, no. 2, Feb. 1865, page 38    [CW], vol. 3, no. 2, Apr. 1867, page 46    [CW], vol. 3, no. 4, July 1867, page 130    [DCJ], vol. 4, no. 33, Nov. 1872, page 252    [Era], vol. 25, no. 1299, 16 Aug. 1863, page 5    [Era], vol. 26, no. 1348, 24 July 1864, page 14    [ILN], vol. 39, no. 1100, 27 July 1861, page 100    [ILN], vol. 40, no. 1137, 29 Mar. 1862, page 325    [ILN], vol. 40, no. 1142, 3 May 1862, page 460    [ILN], vol. 43, no. 1224, 3 Oct. 1863, page 355    [ILN], vol. 45, no. 1278, 17 Sep. 1864, page 299    [ILN], vol. 50, no. 1409, 19 Jan. 1867, page 75    [NBSZ], vol. 6, no. 6, June 1869, page 192    [NBSZ], vol. 7, no. 10, Oct. 1870, page 300    [NR], vol. 2, no. 8, Aug. 1861, page 237    [NR], vol. 4, no. 7, July 1863, page 217    [NYC], 27 Aug. 1864    [Sis], vol. 10, no. 1, Jan. 1856, page 22    [Sis], vol. 4, 1860, page 217    [Sis], vol. 5, 1861, page 114, 121, 215    [Sis], vol. 8, no. 1, Jan. 1864, page 21    [Sis], vol. 8, 1864, page 78, 323    [Sis], vol. 9, 1865, page 213    [Sis], vol. 10, 1866, page 89, 281, 359    [Sis], vol. 1, no. 1, Jan. 1867, page 2    [Sis], vol. 1, no. 2, Feb. 1867, page 54    [Sis], vol. 2, no. 5, May 1868, page 140    [SZ], vol. 22, no. 1, Jan. 1867, page 6    [SZ], vol. 22, no. 8, 15 July 1867, page 224    [SZ], vol. 22, no. 13, 1 Oct. 1867, page 307 Web    [Dutchbase: Amsterdam/Rotterdam 1861]    [Gustav Dufresne]
