Hi Grant,
                    Thanks for your prompt reply.

It appears that James may be my great grandfather, his age matches his year of birth and Ann being his wife is another plus.

Are obits available for the year 1912 ?   I am seeking obit for Joseph Emery, born 1873, died in June 1912.  Wife would Ellen Emery.  Death would be in Morpeth District.

Thanks for the lookup.

Regards Alem

Hello Alem
        Checked the Chronicle for Apr 1912 - June 1912 but did not find any Emery notices at all. There were a few days missing so it could have been there. If you know where they lived a more local paper or burial register may be more fruitfull
