Robert Cormack and Catherine Smythwick

[Maclibris]

Am searching for Robert Cormack, married to Catherine in 1898, Springfield Hampden County.
Any clues as to find out when he died or whether they had children. Have drawn a bit of a blank after finding him with brother Gordon in 1895, then marriage, then nothing
All clues would be gratefully received.  His parents were James and Jane(Jean) , his actual birthdate was 1860 but given as 1863 on marriage cert ( all other information is correct, taking it to be a transcription error)  Mason Contractor.   All suggestions most welcome!  Thanks.

Just to clarify, the place in question is in Massachusetts.  Counties don't usually matter as much as states do in the US - especially with town names like Springfield.   

Do you have anything further on the wife or the brother?

Sorry, Hampden County, MA. Brother Gordon , have his death cert (1913)/. Both brothers were masons/stonecutters.    Both brothers earlier living on 510 Main Street Springfield Hampden County.   Catherine's father was Michael Smythwick and her mother Jane McCarty)  Catherine born in Ireland.   Perhaps they should have been Simpsons!

It's not a mistranscription- marriage record gives age as 35- and mother Jane Bremner:

There must be someone else masquerading ! as have his birth certificate from Huntly. However have noticed discrepancies in both brother's certificates when age is mentioned. Gordon's death certificate relates correctly place, and parents names.  Think they maybe "lost" a few years when
emigrated.  Too many other details are correct.  Considering there is another entry for Robert andCatherines marriage giving name as Carmuck and Smithink, again with same marriage dates and correct parents for Robert but another interpretation of Carty as "Kate's" mother's name, am going with misinterpretion of written word.  Have Robert's birth and marriage certificate and Gordon's birth and death certificate - the back information is correct, but think they did lose a few years on emigrating  ...also have them staying together before Robert's marriage.  Considering when looking for Gordon, was found using family search un der "Gurdon Cormie,"  -  !!!
