I know this is an old thread but maybe of interest to some people here, I added this fellow at the collaborative genealogical website Geni: https://www.geni.com/people/Marcus-Levin/6000000133478165826

I used the information from various secondary sources in the form of MyHeritage family tree but sadly no primary sources. Help is appreciated.

For anyone still following the trail, a few small items:

1. There is a Nov 1805 London Gazette bankruptcy entry for a Moses Marcus Levin (names in that order), Leadenhall Street, London, merchant.
A follow up entry Jan 1806 describes him as 'merchant, dealer and chapman'
Then in Jul 1811: 'Moses Marcus Levin (committed by the name of Moses Levin) formerly of Leadenhall Street London and lately of Norfolk Street in the Strand, in the County of Middlesex, Merchant, a person against whom a commission of bankrupt has issued, and is still in force ...'

2. An 1809 list of voting members of the East India Company lists Mr Moss Levin, Paradise Row, Chelsea.
Johnson, Thacker, Clarke, Cawthorn, Scott, Sharpe, Jordan.
