I don’t have live access to browse right now, so I can’t pull the latest news directly. Based on what’s publicly known, William H.K. Pollock (the British chess player from the 19th century) died in 1896, and there isn’t a contemporary figure with that exact name who appears in current major news streams. If you’re looking for a different person with a similar name (e.g., a contemporary William Pollock in another field), please share more identifying details (occupation, location, or timeframe) and I’ll refine the search.[6]
If you want, I can look up the latest information as soon as I have web access or help you verify a specific source you’ve seen.
