Amazing!  I wonder what happened to him?
Can't find a death.

Can't thank everyone enough for their interest and help

little snippet but no clues, a Ann Sells is mentioned as a witness to a death in Church st in 1894,

John James Sells born circa 1847, was found drowned in the South Dock August 29th 1910, he was a watchman onboard the Thomas Anderson, he'd last been seen on the previous Saturday,


it appears he had a criminal record and was charged on various occasions ,either as James, or John James first arrest 1888

 James Sells was charged on remand with assaulting Annie Mills they lived  in  the same house in Vine st in 1906, but I don't think its the Annie of 1891 unless of course she came back with a new partner as the article says he allowed her and her man to stay with him as they had no place of their own
