Some early Victorian Data is in the NSW lists
http://www.records.nsw.gov.au/asp/searchform.asp?id=3  - I didn't see your man here

Similar here - http://proarchives.imagineering.com.au/index_search_results.asp
The only possibility
SEYMOUR ---- LADY WITH - DEC 1839 WESTMINSTER 2 45
SEYMOUR J W MR - DEC 1839 WESTMINSTER 2 45

But these lists only start 1839.
