Christopher Morcom connection
Should this info be prominently featured in the lede, especially given that Morcom himself doesn't even have an article? I'd put it in the later life section below.
Swan was the maternal grandfather of Christopher Morcom, Alan Turing's close friend and first love during their studies at the Sherborne boarding school.

That Joseph Swan might have had a gay grandchild doesn't have much to do with himself (unless one is looking for some gay connection everywhere). It should be further down in the article. After verifying the source [1], the article only mentions friendship between Christopher Morcom and Alan Turing. Going through the article on Christopher Morcom there is no gay love there but simply friendship.Adrian.agapie (talk) 10:50, 10 August 2019 (UTC)Adrian.agapie
