There is a dispute regarding the year in which
Tartakowers
parents were murdered in a pogrom in Rostov-on-Don. According to
The Oxford Companion to Chess and a Hans Ree article on The Chess
Cafe site, this happened in 1899. However the date 1911 is given
in both Kmochs piece on Tartakower (also at The Chess Cafe site),
and
in the Moran book, A. Alekhine, Agony of a Chess Genius. |
