Burrau died in 1947 (source) Dwight died in 1975 (source) I could not find info on A.J. Thompson's year of death.

Just a comment on Šiljak's source about Dwight: the footnote (in Russian) says "Год смерти этого автора точно неизвестен и оценен как 1975", i.e. the year of death of Dwight was unknown by the author of that website and "estimated" as 1975.
