There were a few anomalies/oddities in what was reported which don’t add up. What are the chances none of his family or friends, colleagues, neighbours etc recognised him? Nil. His photo has been all over the news for decades.
I thought that the
one DNA connection they claim to have found seems a bit distant. Presumably more dna testing is being done with more Webb relatives.
They exhumed his remains last year, yet an article I read said they found hairs in his death mask. Was there no useful DNA to be found in his remains?
I couldn’t see any WW2 records for a Carl or Charles Webb with the 1905 dob.
I won’t be convinced they’ve identified the right man until I see more facts. Presumably someone is already writing a book about it.
