Notes: |
Steve Mann mentions a 'James Fawcett, architect, of Sheffield' in connection with Joseph Addey Fawcett of Wakefield. The latter was an active chess player, so it seems likely that the former was the 'Mr. Fawcett' who played in the Sheffield Athenaeum Tournament in 1865. Mann also mentions a 'Rev. James Fawcett, vicar of Knaresborough' who assisted in the wedding of the sister of the architect James Fawcett. But Knaresborough is further from Sheffield than even Wakefield, so this does not seem a likely candidate. |
