Biographical data
Name: Janowsky, Chaim  
   Also known as: Chaim (Chajkel) Janowski; Janowski sr.
Born: 15 June 1853
Died:
 
Notes:
First name from Walter Chan (personal communication). Popovsky has 'Janowski H.' winning the Lodz championship of 1899. Alan McGowan sent me a copy of his birth record with exact birth date (name of father 'Markiel' suggests strongly that this is the correct Chaim Janowski, brother of David Markelowicz Janowski). This date is also given on the wikepedia page.
