Hockings from Oreston (nr Plymouth) Devon

Hi, I have a lot of information about the Hockings families from Oreston, (or Plymstock, or Plympton, or even Newton Abbott at one time.) I am willing to help with local research in this area. However, I also have a want. I am trying to find out more about the death of Henry Hawkins who was drowned at sea 29/11/1856. Despite knowing this much, I have never been able to find out where he died and what he was doing at the time. I cannot even find a death certificate for him. Any help would be appreciated.
