Good to hear you have his death certificate. If you could post your transcription that would be interesting and may give more clues to his birth and help find him in the missing census.

Hi trooper2404.

I think the image you have posted will probably be removed.
Not to worry as you can put into your own words the information in the certificate that is relevant.

Looking forward to reading your next post.  :)

Thanks for that info.
This is what I have gleaned, is it correct ?

His death was registered Tynemouth by E. Summers, his widow.
Her address is 10 Hamilton Street, Blyth
His age is 58 years and he lived at Bowes Street, Blyth UD
He was a Merchant Seaman and died of Pulmonory Tuberculosis
Death was registered 23rd October 1922

According to the death certificate for James 1922 they were living at different addresses in Blyth so maybe they had been estranged for a while.
