An Antony Williams, drown in the lake in 1815 saving his employer. There is a tombstone at Blatherwycke church which reads something like:
His home far off in the broad Indian main,
He left to rid himself of slavery's chain.
Friendless and comfortless he passed the sea,
On Albion's shores to seek for liberty.
Yet vain his search for aye with toiling brow
He never found his freedom until now.
I am not sure if this has any link with the skeleton that has been mentioned?
