Historical Characters Who Died Sooner Than In OTL

This entry lists all of the historical figures whose lifespan was shorter in one or more of the works of Harry Turtledove than in OTL. Most of these characters were killed off years before they died in OTL (for instance, Winston Churchill, who died in 1965 in OTL, is killed in a car accident in 1940 in The War That Came Early), although some did die mere months early.
