Hi Joe - You're welcome. Just a few more thoughts.

Some Henry's get called Harry and this 'Henry' seems to be the nearest contender.

BIRTH: Mar 1876 Holt Henry Chard 5c 464

(Chard District inc Yarcombe, Devon, near the south coast)

So... if Harry was born in or near Yarcombe, he could well have given his pob as Teignmouth. The nearest big town, which is approx 35 miles away.

Can't find a likely Hastings Tempest Holt in Somerset or elsewhere, nearest seems to be...
BIRTH: Dec 1839 Holt Tempest Hayes Manchester 20 575
MARRIAGE: Sep 1864 Holt Tempest Hay Chorlton 8c 644
DEATH: Jun 1883 HOLT Tempest Hay 43 Preston 8e 429

Perhaps Tempest was a soldier and posted to Devon with wife -
Wyvern Barracks, Barrack Rd, Exeter, EX2 6AR - (25 miles from Chard)

Hope this is of further help. Sue
