If you think this is him send me your email by pm and I will pass on three records to you. Then we will see about how we read and interpret them.
My friend Roger Griffiths is the main man for this era in MN research (Register of Seamen Series II and III). He is not on here to my knowledge but still on SN.
I don't see anything for William b. 1770 yet.

Hugh,
Brilliant - confirmation at last! This certainly looks like him, date of birth looks right and his wife and kids did live in Jarrow according to the census returns I have seen!
Thanks mate, your a star!
I will PM you with my email address immediately!
Cheers,
Tom
