Plot 1168 is probable what is know as a "Guinea" grave and they will be in with a number of other people totally unrelated, there is one in Holbeck Cemetery (which is actually in Beeston) which has over 40 occupants.

@bbart
William1843 is my 3GGF.
He went onto have children one of them being Harry Dawson 1883 who is my 2GGF. He married Mary Ann Lightowler. My living grandma remembers Mary well, however she was onyo 6 when Harry died her grandfather so has limited memory
They did live on Hilledge Road, my grandma confirmed this so this is definitely the correct Dawsons.
Thanks again everyone for your help. I now have lots to go on and do some more searching with  :)
