Spencer Crakanthorp, (17 February 1885 in Sydney, Australia – 1 August 1936) was a chess player and Australian Chess Champion in 1923−24, 1925−26, 1926 and 1927.
 He was the father-in-law of chess master Cecil Purdy who married Anne Purdy (née Crakanthorp, 1915–2013).
 Anne was a strong A Grade chess player in her own right.
 He was also grandfather to another chess master, Cecil's son John Purdy.
 Furthermore, Crakanthrop's granddaughter Diana Hutchings (née Purdy) married Frank Huntchings - winner of the 1953 New Zealand junior chess championship while his father (Lawrence Crakanthorp) (1857-1929) was ranked world no 188 in the 1902 historical world rating list.
 Therefore, the Crakanthorp-Purdy family can be recognized as one of the greatest chess dynasties ever.
The Chess Player's Chronicle, founded by Howard Staunton and extant from 1841–56 and 1859–62, was the world's first successful English-language magazine devoted exclusively to chess.

 Possibly his greatest tournament success was when tying for first place in the British Chess Championship tournament of 1973, although he was to lose the play-off match with William Hartston.
Frederick Dewhurst Yates (16 January 1884, Birstall – 11 November 1932, London) was an English chess master who won the British Chess Championship on six occasions.

 He is considered to have been the greatest chess master of his era and an unofficial World Chess Champion.
 He was a chess prodigy.
 He was called "The Pride and Sorrow of Chess" because he had a brilliant chess career but retired from the game while still young.

Howard Staunton (1810 – 22 June 1874) was an English chess master who is generally regarded as having been the world's strongest player from 1843 to 1851, largely as a result of his 1843 victory over Saint-Amant.
 He promoted a chess set of clearly distinguishable pieces of standardised shape—the Staunton pattern promulgated by Nathaniel Cook—that is still the style required for competitions.
 He was the principal organiser of the first international chess tournament in 1851, which made England the world's leading chess centre and caused Adolf Anderssen to be recognised as the world's strongest player.
