Talk:Jim Cavill

Untitled
I am somewhat dubious about the claim that Jim Cavill is the son of the Frederick Cavill, champion swimmer, and Maria Rhodes. Jim's Qld death index list his parents as Fred & Freda (maiden name not stated). This biography of Frederick Cavill, the champion swimmer, http://adb.anu.edu.au/biography/cavill-frederick-5536 mentions the marriage to Maria Rhodes but does not list James among the children, while this biography of Jim http://adb.anu.edu.au/biography/cavill-james-freeman-jim-9713 suggests that his early life is "sketchy and inconsistent" and that there are "various stories". However, he does appear to have been a swimmer and life saver like the famous Frederick Cavill. Kerry (talk) 04:25, 26 August 2012 (UTC)
