The Swift family Nottingham

Trying to find out more about the Swift family, in particular from Sneinton/St Ann's, Nottingham. The earliest ancestor I have found was born in Shepshed, Leicestershire, and moved to Nottingham. Have some information that I'm willing to share.
Would love to hear from any current Swifts who have ancestors from the areas mentioned above to find out more about the family, especially if they remember a Harold Swift, as I'm trying to find out about his time before and after WW1. He also told his nursing home carers that he was related to boxer, Wally Swift and would teach his Grandchildren (not Wally's!) to spa, so would love to know whether there is some truth in this.
