One of John Cabot's sons, Sebastian, is bound up with his father's story, and the story of the European exploration of North America. So much so that for many years people confused father and son, and thought it was Sebastian, not John, who had crossed the North Atlantic in 1497 and 1498. How did this come about? And did Sebastian sail with his father on his expeditions?

Explorer in English and Spanish service; son of John Cabot. He may well have accompanied his father on the 1497 and 1498 voyages, and he was for many years given the credit for his father's achievements. In the 19th cent., scholars, finding discrepancies in the Sebastian stories, branded him an impostor and applied his accounts to the 1498 voyage of John Cabot.
