Question: \When was the aviation pioneer died who claimed to have flown near Bridgeport, Connecticut on August 14, 1901?
Context: Gustave Albin Whitehead (born Gustav Albin Weisskopf; 1 January 1874 – 10 October 1927) was an aviation pioneer who emigrated from Germany to the United States where he designed and built gliders, flying machines and engines between 1897 and 1915.  Controversy surrounds published accounts and Whitehead's own claims that he flew a powered machine successfully several times in 1901 and 1902, predating the first flights by the Wright Brothers in 1903. The Whitehead No.21 was the aircraft that aviation pioneer Gustave Whitehead claimed to have flown near Bridgeport, Connecticut on August 14, 1901. The Camp Clarke Bridge Site in Morrill County, Nebraska near Bridgeport dates from 1875.  Also known as 25 MO 68, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974. John Polando (1901–1985) was an early American aviation pioneer who, along with Russell Boardman, flew from Floyd Bennett Field to Istanbul in 1931 to set an aviation record for the longest continuous distance flown without refueling.  Following this achievement, he was an officer in World War II. WEBE (107.9 FM, advertised on air as ""Weeby 108""), owned by Cumulus Media, is an Adult Contemporary-formatted station.  Located on 107.9 FM, the station is licensed to serve the community of Westport, Connecticut.  The station is usually ranked number one in the Stamford-Norwalk, Bridgeport and Fairfield County ratings, and is in the top 5 of the New Haven, Connecticut market rating.  One of the main elements behind the station's success is its traffic coverage reports that cover the entire route from interior Connecticut to lower Fairfield County.  WEBE is one of the most powerful radio stations in Southern Connecticut with an effective radiated power of 50,000 watts, reaching most of Westchester County, New York into the Bronx, parts of Manhattan, most of Long Island, as well as southern parts of the Hartford area.  The studios, along with the studios of sister station WICC, are located at 2 Lafayette Square on the 7th Floor in Bridgeport, Connecticut.  The transmitting antenna is on the United Illuminating plant smoke stack near Bridgeport Harbor. The Bridgeport Valley is a large, fertile mountain basin between the eastern Sierra Nevada and the Bodie Hills of the U.S. state of California.  The valley is 10 mi long and 7.5 mi wide, and is used primarily for ranching.  The East Walker River is the main stream flowing through the Bridgeport Valley; tributaries include Robinson and Swauger Creeks.  The only town in the valley is Bridgeport, near Bridgeport Reservoir, which is formed by a dam that floods the northern end of the valley. Connecticut Railway and Lighting Company was a streetcar and bus transit operator serving the region around Bridgeport, Norwalk, Derby, New Britain and Waterbury, Connecticut.  It was formed in 1901 by United Gas Improvement Company of Philadelphia to manage the streetcar operations of the Connecticut Light and Power Company, which at the time included Central Railway and Electric Company, Norwalk Street Railway, and the Waterbury Traction Company.  The newly formed Connecticut Railway and Lighting acquired Bridgeport Traction Company, Derby Street Railway, Milford Street Railway, Shelton Street Railway, Meriden, Southington and Compounce Tramway Company, and the Cheshire Street Railway.  Connecticut Railway and Lighting was leased to the Consolidated Railway and in turn the Connecticut Company between 1906 and 1936.  Streetcar operations were discontinued in 1937 when all lines were converted to bus.  Transit operations continued until 1972, when all remaining bus operations were suspended and taken over by Connecticut Transit, except in Bridgeport- by the Greater Bridgeport Transit District in 1975. Skirmishes at or near Bridgeport, Alabama between Union Army and Confederate States Army forces occurred on April 23, 27 and 29 (West Bridge), 1862 during the American Civil War.  A modern newspaper article called the April 1862 action the Siege of Bridgeport after a modern re-enactment event, although the actions are described as skirmishes by other sources such as Dyer (1908), Long (1971) and the U.S. National Park Service.  Other skirmishes occurred at Bridgeport on August 27, 1862 and July 27, 1863, which involved an attack on a steamer.  Union forces occupied Bridgeport after an engagement on July 29, 1863. René Grandjean (November 12, 1884 – April 14, 1963) was a Swiss aviation pioneer.  He designed and built the aircraft that was flown by Ernest Failloubaz for the first flight in Switzerland of an aircraft built and flown by Swiss citizen, was probably the first glacier pilot and was pioneering on seaplanes. David Schwarz (Croatian: "David Švarc" , ] ; 20 December 1850 – 13 January 1897) was a Croatian-Hungarian aviation pioneer of Jewish descent born in the Austrian Empire.  He is known for creating the first airship with a rigid hull, in his case one made entirely of metal, an essential step in creating a dirigible, that is: an airship whose flight trajectory can be fully controlled with the help of engine-driven propellers.  Schwarz died only months before the airship was flown.  Some sources have claimed that Count Ferdinand Graf von Zeppelin purchased Schwarz's airship patent from his widow, a claim which has been disputed.  He was the father of the opera and operetta soprano Vera Schwarz (1888–1964).
