Biographical data
Name: Mills, D. (1)  
Born:
Died:
 
Notes:
The name of the player at Grantham 1878 is given as 'D.G. Mills' in the Chess Player's Chronicle of 1 Feb. 1878 (p.42), who I am guessing was 'D. Mills' of Bradford in the early 1870s. This player was not, however, Daniel Yarnton Mills, as both D.G. Mills and D.Y. Mills attended the West Yorkshire Chess Association meetings of 1882 and 1883, being listed separately.
