continuing from my previous post re:
Gustav Ludvig Goßler (4 April 1879 – 4 April1940) German rower who competed in the 1900 Summer Olympics.note the following from the 1900 Summer Olympics wiki page:
So the anniversary of the closing date was yesterday. Note these next excerpts:
- No opening or closing ceremonies were held; competitions began on May 14 and ended on October 28.
Athletes participating 997 (975 men, 22 women)
- Olympic champion as part of the winning team in the 1-2 ton sailing event. Charlotte Cooper
So 22 women in the event and Charlotte born on the 22nd and passed away 10/10/66. I would say that this is a sure heads up!!
- Charlotte Cooper Sterry ( 22 September 1870 – 10 October 1966)
