 Hi, a possibility although may not be him.
Findmypast has a record for a William T Godley aged 22 in 1841 from Lindfield, Sussex.
British Royal Navy and Royal Marines Service and Pension records 1709 - 1939.
Lists ships served on and rank up to 1857. May have served in Mauritius after that in a different capacity.
May be why he married abroad?

Essex / Re: Len Martin - WW.1 Soldier & Cinema Manager - Plz Help

If his birthday is 18.2.1898 as in earlier answer there are several POW records  for a Leonard A Martin

One record gives the following
Martin L.
200810   sign.  Essex Regiment
Born 18.2.1898 Leytonstone (1899 in one record)
Parents Mr & Mrs Martin, 605 Romford Road, Forestgate, London

If it had been him, i would have thought it might have been mentioned he had been captured.

Cathy

Added a pension  ledger and index card for
 Leonard Arthur Martin 3000/200810
has NOK Leonard Arthur Martin (Unsure this is correct as cannot see actual image)

Hi,
Welcome to Rootschat

Someone has a possible tree on Familysearch but as always online trees can be incorrect but maybe some more names to research.

A newspaper memorium notice for a child confirms that Cassidy and Nash family members were at that address in 1927.
Cathy
Added... several mentions of the Cassidy members in the Derry Journal over the years.

 A relatively common name and possibly not whom you are looking for but given the India and occupation there is this from 1963

Family History Beginners Board / Re: Swinton Rotherham Burial

Not sure if your man but several pieces in the newspapers about a George William Wilson resident/born Swinton.
Died aged 71 of 40 Dale Street, Rawmarsh.
Lots of mentions of his sporting prowess. Sheffield Daily Telegraph 21st Oct 1930 mentions "the funeral takes place this afternoon at Hough Road Cemetery, Rawmarsh."
One article mentions people at his funeral
