TRAINOR James, Explorer/Prospector active 1896-1903

[Leigh1]

Struggling to find any personal information on James Trainor.  He was a member (cook) of the Calvert Scientific Exploring Expedition (leader Lawrence Wells) of 1896, mapping central & northern Western Australia & searching for minerals & a camel handler on a further expedition with Wells in 1903.  I found one mention of his being English but I have no idea of place/date of birth or death.  There are lots of reports of the expeditions & plenty about Wells but nothing more about James. 

Long shot I know, but does anyone have any suggestions as to where I can find out more?  Thank you.

He must have died before 1933 https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/83229765

Beejah, who is a Baluchi, and whose full name in Beejah Derwish, was Mr. Wells's camel driver. He and Mr. Wells are the only two members of the expedition alive…

Findagrave.com has burial site Port Augusta age 67 ( so if buried 1910, then born c 1843)

Thank you both so much.  The death reference in particular is going to be a great help as I now have some dates to narrow him down!  Appreciate your input.
