I've spent ages getting nowhere with these.

JB--ECB = James Brindley -- English Canal Builder

Is the best unfortunately. These are alternative JB's - Joseph Bramah (flushing toilet/locks). James Black - Nobel winner - drugs. Joseph Black - Carbon dioxide discoverer.Jons Berzellius - chemical symbol system.John Bardeen - Nobel - superconductors. John L Baird.

Cannot find anything on the other one.

Dol  by cs - I've looked up every author with initials cs, and every poem by Christopher Smart and Charles Hamilton Sorley - nothing with dol. Not many other poets with cs initials

I've found out a lot about 1635, 1844 and 1891, but nothing that remotely fits the letters.

Can you give some examples of other answers so I can look in a different way perhaps, or any ideas you have.

many thanks for all your hard work, I too have been driven mad by these final few. Some examples of other answers are as follows

(science) - MFICL at the RI = michael faraday introduced christmas lectures at the royal institute.

(literature) - S of M and MF= season of mist and mellow fruitfulness

S and C by RK= stalky and co by rudyard kipling

(geography) = 1488 BDRC of GH= bartholomew dias rounds cape of good hope

Thanks. I am having enough trouble with these though !
Perhaps we are being misled by the format of DOL by Cs and it is in fact a first line

1635 jhr to psm=john hampden refuses to pay ship money.
