While doing further searching for William Deadman, I found a website Rhead Deadman Family which did have William Deadman (husband of Ellen Heath) as the individual who died in 1864 and is buried in Carrville Cemetery.
Information on this site also took me back at least 2 more generations in England and connected the John Deadman (husband of Mary Bone) I had stored in my file as a possible relative in my Deadman family. William and John were half-brothers. I had previously recorded info on John Deadman and Mary Bone as they had located in Ontario in the same area as William and Ellen and I figured there was a connection somehow, but it was a matter of verifying.
With the additional information on the people in England, I searched for IGI records on FamilySearch as well as the British census to fill in more of the gaps.
Rule of thumb: keep searching - even revisiting sites you have previously searched as the internet is always changing. And once additional information is obtained, use the "new" information for further searching.
