Email to me from Mr. William Docherty

Post by Alan Millhone »

Hello Checker and Draughts Players:

Tonight I received a nice email from Mr. William Docherty (2000 British Ty. Champion and 4th. place in 2002. Played as challenger to Mr. Alex Moiseyev in 2001 at Morcombe and lost narrowly at 5-4 and 11 draws.

He is now living in Paris, France and wanted me to inform everyone where he was and if ever over his way to drop by for a few games:-)

Here is his address and phone number:

William Docherty
2 RUE DE MALASSIS
HAMEAU DE VILLEVERT
91470 PECQUEUSE
TEL (0033) (0) 164915804

Hey Alan, i hope your backs getting better. I was going through some old NZ draught reviews the other day and i came across a game by W Docherty, but it was in 1953,but i think he was from scotland,im still trying to find it,and maybe it was a relative (father) of this w docherty

Hi Jan:

I went for another 'adjustment' today and my lower back hurts me the most. Not sure on your query on which Docherty your article refers?

Sorry to hear you are still suffering alan, hope it all comes right soon. I found the game in NZ Draught Review, nov 1956.W.Docherty v J Gilliland, which was played in a league match between St Pauls and Willowfield,Belfast.
10 14,2319, 1116,1915,1619, 2217, 1418,1714,913,2117,1322,2617,6 9,1713,7 11,13 6, 1 17, 2522,17 26, 30 14, resulting in draw
