Wow - thanks all for all this information, I never expected to get so much so quickly after trying to find info on him, off and on, for so long.  It was just by sheer chance I found the date of his death as have never actually got his actual birth notice, just worked out his age from the 1841 census - no problem with the rest of the family though so don't know why he wasn't registered.  You've all given me a lot to take in and many thanks once again you have all been so helpful.

Sparrett/Sue I'd love to have copies of the photos of the graves but how do I get them from you?  Is it through private message?
Thanks
