Biographical data
Name: Wagner, Heinrich  
   Also known as: Behrend
Born: 9 Aug. 1888
Died: 24 June 1959
 
Notes:
Gaige, in Chess Personalia says that Heinrich Wagner used 'Behrend' as a pseudonym, and in Chess Tournament Crosstables one of the players at Mannheim 1914 is give as 'Behrend' in quotation marks. I presume this was Wagner. Di Felice has 'Behrend, Georg' at Mannheim 1914. There was a player named Georg Behrend (1842-1925) who lived in Berlin, so perhaps it was him at Mannheim 1914, after all?
