Professional Swimmers - London area
« on: Tuesday 06 October 09 09:09 UTC (UK) »

Does anyone know about professional swimmers in the London area about the 1890s. I have just obtained a marriage certificate for one of my relations which showed her father's profession as professional Swimmer.
In the 1881 census he was just a warehouse man .  Mary Annie Robinson married Walter Gallington 1899.

His name is William Edwin Robinson born about 1850 in Shrewsbury, but lived in Hackney. He died in 1891 age 42. Another relation had sent me a photo of a older man with lots of cups and Medals thinking it was another grandfather, William Gallington, but I think it was William Robinson.

Any ideas
