Hi again Paul

I think this is your man, I've found another two navel records which I thought were the same person. One said William Dawkins date of birth 1824 place of birth woodnesborough. I looked up woodnesborough and its a village near Sandwich, Kent and on searching 1851 census there is a George Dawkins who was born 1774 in Woodnesborough who is an Agriculturer Labourer, matches father on wedding certificate !!!! Also on the family search website there is a christening record for a William Dawkins Christening Date: 22 Apr 1824,  Father: George, Place: Woodnesborough, Kent, England

Hi Paul

Just came across your post, don't know if you have got anywhere but here's what I've found:

 In BT153 - Registers of Wages and Effects of Deceased Seamen there is a Wm Durkin: date of death 18 January 1863: Ships name Buccepholus

In the Merchant Navy Seamen 1835-1941 BT113 records there is a William Dawkins: date of birth: 12/01/1824 Place of Birth: Sandwich, Kent. But when you look at the record, which was issued in 1845, it states "When unemployed resides at Hartlepool"
 
I have scans of both documents if you want to PM me with your email address

Regards

Alan

Hi Alison

Just came across your post. Not sure if you've got anywhere but I did a search of Find my Past merchant navy records and have got a copy of Stanley Stainthorpe Morrison's CR10 (it contains a photo of him) and his CR2. If you would like a copy PM me with your email address and I will email them to you.

Regards

Hi Emma

Just came across this post whilst googling Isabel Grewcock. Whilst I can not help you with the missing census records, I do have a lot of information about the Grewcocks. I go back to 1715 with Isabel's ancestors. Would love to compare what you have

Regards

Alan (a different one, to above)
