    Captain Webb is supposedly my great great uncle. He was my grandmothers’s uncle. Her name was Florence Murray.

    Hi Matt, you may be interested to know my wife has an original copy Captain Webbs “The Art of Swimming” which has been placed with the auction house Sworders, and will be in their 16th April sale. Regards, Paul.

    Hello Matt, I too am possibly related to Captain Webb. It was considered a family myth at first but recently have found in a Census that my ancestor was at least living in the same house as him.
    I’m an art student at Leeds College of Art, and i’ve decided to make a piece to realise/visualise this possible relationship.
    I’m wanting to recreate what sensations he might have felt e.g. sound, and getting visually impaired crafts people to make there own impression.
    I was wondering if you had any info or (preferably) photos of the commemorative pottery?
    Thank you so much
    P.s. it would be weird if by some way or another we’re related through marriage etc. Small world!
