(The link is of interest to the rest of this thread as well).

Rather than waste a good theory, I'll turn this one round and speculate that maybe Emmeline was inspired by him, not vice versa!

But equally, Merewether might have been inspired by him. He was into "speed tombrobbing" as Rhiannon calls it, digging eight of the Priddy Nine Barrows in a week in 1815. http://www.themodernantiquarian.com/site/3256/priddy_nine_barrows.html
