Biographical data

Name: Walsh, John Henry

Born: 21 Oct. 1810

Died: 12 Feb. 1888

Notes:

I am guessing that the 'J.H. Walsh' of the Worcestershire 1852 tournament is the 'John Henry Walsh' given by Gaige, born 1810 in London. Confusingly, Staunton, in the Chess Player's Chronicle of 1852 (p.356) gives 'H.D. Walsh' in this event, but in the 1851 volume (p.374), the 1853 volume (p.62) and in the 22 Nov. 1851 Illustrated London News, he gives 'J.H. Walsh'.
