| Biographical data |
| Name: Tennenwurzel, Edward |
| Also known as: I. Tenenwurzel; I. Tannenwurzel |
| Born: 1879 |
| Died: 18 Oct. 1921 |
| |
| Notes: |
| Gaige's Chess Tournament Crosstables has 'Tenenwurzel, L.' at a New York tournament in 1911, 'Tenenwurzel, I.' at New York tournaments in 1913, and 'Tennenwurzel, E.' at a tournament in New York in 1916. Di Felice has 'Tennenwurzel, Edward' at all of these events. Gaige's Chess Personalia lists only 'Tennenwurzel, Edward', giving date of death as 18-10-1821 at age 42, and therefore he must have been born between 19-10-1878 and 18-10-1879. Hilbert, in Writings in Chess History (p.451) has 'E. Tennenwurzel' at the 1911 tournament, and Hilbert and Lahde have 'Edward Tennenwurzel' there. The New York Sun of 1 May 1910 (p.3) has a biography of 'I. Tenenwurzel', saying he was previously a prominent member of the Cosmopolitan Club. Sánchez (p.510) has 'J. Tennenwurzel' from the Brooklyn Daily Eagle of 11 Dec. 1911 (p.14), but his index (p.552), still identifies him as Edward Tennenwurzel. I will guess that these are all the same person. The American Chess Magazine of Mar. 1898 (p.576) has 'Tannerw'zel' of the Cosmopolitan Club, who I will also guess is the same person, though he would have been about 18 or 19 years old then. The New York Sun of 1 May 1910 says he was 27 years old, which does not agree with Gaige, and would mean he was only about 14 or 15 in 1898, which seems less likely. |
