Name: Biggs, F.

Notes:
The Chess Player's Magazine of Feb. 1865 (p.57) lists both a 'Biggs' and an 'F. Biggs' playing for Bath against Bristol, but many of the other players are listed more than once with different opponents so I am guessing that these two are the same. In the Apr. 1865 issue (p.95), 'Dr. Biggs' is listed as playing for Bath in another match against Bristol. Again, i am guessing that this is the same player.
