Name: Wilenkin, M.  
   Also known as: M. Willenkin

Notes:
Barak Saltz (personal communication) points out an article in the 9 Feb. 1928 Brooklyn Daily Times (p.48) describing an accident in which two men were injured when a taxi collided with a car driven by Morris Wilenkin. He also indicates a FindAGrave listing for Morris Willenkin (1903-30 Aug. 1964). This may be the chess player, and results for 'A. Wilenkin' may also be errors for the same person, but so far I have nothing concrete to suggest that Morris Willenkin was the chess player.
