Profile |
|
Full name |
Walter Scott Buchanan |
|
Notes |
The early
publications gave nothing more than W.S. as a forename to this player. On the basis that the only W.S. Buchanan born in this era is the one we
have noted here. This MUST be treated with caution, because no one
has any certainty on his identity. After all, it was not unheard of
for the early publications to add an initial. |
