Biographical data
Name: Schelfhout, Willem Andreas Theodorus  
   Also known as: Pion
Born: 19 May 1874
Died: 30 Jan. 1951
 
Notes:
The Field of 30 Aug. 1913 has 'T.A. Schelfhout' in the Major Open Tournament in Cheltenham 1913. Gaige has both 'C.J. Schelfhout' and 'W.A.T. Schelfhout', but the former seems to be an error for the latter.
