Notes:
Feenstra Kuiper gives +7-0=1 against 'R.H. Barnes'. Di Felice gives +7-0=1 against 'Robert Henry Barnes'. Kingston and Russell give +7-0=1 against 'Barnes'. Van Winsen gives +7-0=1 against 'Alfred P. Barnes'. It appears that Feenstra Kuiper and Di Felice have got the wrong Barnes (Robert Henry Barnes was born in England and played in tournaments in Germany in the 1880s and 1890s).
