Yes that certainly fits well, less than 6 months after discharge from Coastguard service. I wonder if there was a compulsory retirement age that he reached in Sept 1839, or he was discharged for ill health.

possible marriage for oldest daughter Margaret

Q3 1841 Bridlington district vol 23 page 25
(free bmd)
Possible spouses:  Thomas Cowen, James Nicholson, William Stratton

The fourth one was called Hudson Edmond, he was married to a Mary in 1851, with no sign of a second marriage in between, so it looks like he married Mary Clubley, so can be eliminated.

Can't seem to find any census records for Cowan family in 1851. Maybe they emigrated.

on the 1841 census Thomas Cowen was living with or next door to the Sykes family

just for the records ..... which may well explain the early arrival of their son Richard Sykes Cowan
