Biographical data
Name: Crosse, Edward Ilbert  
   Also known as: Rev. E.I. Crosse
Born: 1854
Died: 6 May 1896
 
Notes:
The 22 Feb. 1882 issue of the Chess Player's Chronicle (p.94) has 'E H Crosse' while the 29 Mar. 1882 issue (p.151) has 'E J Crosse' as does the 3 Jun. 1876 issue of the Field and the 25 Feb. 1882 issue of Land and Water. The 1 Mar. 1884 issue of Land and Water (p.203) has 'Rev. E.I. Crosse'. I am guessing that this is Rev. Edward Ilbert Crosse (c1854-1896). Gaige gives his date of birth as 'c1854'.
