I see by the baptisms Hugh was with the preventative service

He is mentioned in a couple of Coast Guard sites

Also St Kerverne Records Online. 

Have a good look around and get back to us if you have any queries

Hi, thanks for your help its very interesting!! I still cant find Hugh Pill on the early census - maybe I'm just not looking properly!! Thanks

Hi

Is Hugh the man in the 1871 census in the Kemp household in Penzance?

I will see if I can trace him in earlier censuses for you.  As he was  a coastguard (assuming I have the right man) he may have moved around quite a lot
