Hi there

Lewannick is about 28 miles from Torpoint, interesting that Cornwall OPC have that baptism shown with only mother Mary, in the notes it says BB ( baseborn?). Other baptisms on Cornwall OPC around that time frame are also from parishes not that close to Torpoint. It may be a possibility that he was baptised in Devon as the border is only 1 mile away (list of nearby places can be found on genuki http://www.genuki.org.uk/cgi-bin/places?CON,SX438552,5,Torpoint)

Shirl

North,Noble,Harrison,Seller - North Riding Yorks parishes
Brown,Brooks,Watson - Belper/Duffield Derbys
Hole - Ashover Derbys
Webb, Flavell, Mason - Staffs (mainly Sedgley)
Bevan,Beamond - Chirbury Shropshire
Longridge - Northumberland/Durham
Freeman - Hampshire, Oxfordshire,Sussex
Smith - Derbyshire and Yorkshire
Whitehead - Yorkshire
Morris - St Pancras Yorkshire etc

There are a number of trees on ancestry containing John Dennis - none have his parentage, but they do claim sight of the record of his marriage to Mary Joll in 1828 and have a date of birth for him of 30 August 1806 (but no source given)

the marriage appears to be in Antony, Cornwall 24 Sep 1827.

Torpoint parish was created out of Antony in 1819

The couples' son John Joll Dennis was baptised 7 March 1830 in Stoke Damerel, abode noted as Torpoint.
