Checkers Champions of Past Eras
The games of Checkers/Draughts will be used interchangeably here because the roots of the traditional games are the same, with Draughts as the parent of the more modern version of Checkers. Most of the champions of past eras played Draughts and this section is devoted to these great checkers players. When you take a walk into history, especially searching for biographical data on past legends, it is often necessary to look in every dusty nook and darkened cranny to unearth little tidbits here and there. Eventually, through doggedness and perseverance, some information comes to light. However, it becomes a little more difficult when these noted figures were champions of the rather obscure game of Checkers/Draughts in the early days of its inception. Somewhere along that long corridor into the past, it was discovered that the first World Checkers Champion was Andrew Anderson (1799-1861) of Braidwood, Scotland. |
