Taylor,
I believe that you you are correct on all of your answers. The only
one that had me unsure was Taubenhaus. I originally thought it was
Amos
Burn, as it looks just like him in the 1895 Hastings group picture:

However, I had already known that the picture was taken at the
Manhattan Chess Club in 1893, and the only New York tournament in
which Burn had ever participated, was in 1889 (to my limited
knowledge).
I=92m glad this one made you work a little bit ;)
