Biographical data
Name: Jacobson, Ernst  
   Also known as: Ernst Jacobsen
Born: 31 Jan. 1889
Died: 8 Feb. 1963
 
Notes:
Gaige, in Chess Tournament Crosstables, has 'Jacobsohn' at Cologne 1911, but 'Jacobson, E.' or 'Jacobsen, E.' at later events in Scandinavia. Di Felice identifies all of these as 'Jacobson, Ernst', and Holmgren consistently has 'Ernst Jacobson'. Gaige, in Chess Peronalia has 'Jacobsen, Ernst'. Holmgren and Tidskrift för Schack have Ernst Jacobson. Without further proof, I will assume that the German player was different.
