The link to the 1851 that you gave looks like it's for a Morris Morris not Moses  :-\

Add - another site also has this record as Morris Morris

Also, the Moses on the marriage cert, has his father as a  shoemaker.

Added a snip from 1861

Oof, that's what I get for composing that message from my phone.

I noticed the botched name, but suspected an enumeration error. The census is a year after the marriage, in the same parish, and one of two people named Gwellian Morris in the vicinity. Moses Morris is an uncommon name, and with a matching father's name, I was quick to suspect them being one and the same -- but maybe being too generous.

The nearest for a baptism in Kent for Benjamin is
 
Chatham 7 April 1805 to Thomas and Sarah.

Towards the bottom of page 23.

Not sure.

Chatham is a famous RN dockyard.

I have been able to look up the marriage:

St Nicholas, Newcastle upon Tyne
Page 188
Entry 375
18 January 1859
Charles Morris & Sarah Jane Scott
Age: Both Full
Mariner
Both: This Parish
Fathers:
Benjamin Morris – Mariner
George Scott – Farmer?
Both Bride & Groom signed their marks X
Witnesses:
Robert Scott signed his mark X
Mary (Hutton Christine H-?)

Looks like mariner but could be miner?
