Biographical data
Name: Metger, Johannes Ad. M.  
Born: 15 Dec. 1851
Died: 24 Jan. 1926
 
Notes:
Feenstra Kuiper, Golombek, and Goldman have birth year 1850; Hooper and Whyld (1st ed.) have birth year 1850, but correct it to 1851 in their 2nd edition. The Illustrirte Zeitung of Leipzig 17 Aug. 1867 (p.118) and the Schachzeitung of 1 Feb. 1868 (p.48) and Aug. 1869 (p.249) and Feb. 1870 (p.55) have 'H. Metger'. Is the 'Metyer' in the Westminster Papers of 1 Jun. 1870 (vol.3, p.19) the same player?
