Biographical data
Name: Keller, Adolf D.  
Born:
Died: Feb. 1930
 
Notes:
Gaige has an Adolf Keller, died 1930, but he'd have to have been born by about 1845 to be at Elberfeld 1865? Le Palamède (1846, new series, v.6, p.519) mentions a Keller in Strasbourg in 1846? The Schachzeitung of Nov. 1865 (p.322) has 'Kettler' on p.322, but 'A. Keller' on p.323.
