All Stanhope.
MA and James were my 3rd GGP
My grandfather James Ernest emigrated to NZ as did his brother Issaac and was met by relatives of or Featherston(e) family here. There is also a town named Featherston where they lived in NZ

What was the surname of James Ernest and Issaac?

I don't see a death for either a James Ernest Vickers or Featherston/e
