Hi
Could anyone help me please. I'm trying to find out when, where and how James Taylor died. He was my mum's dad's dad. He was born in Manchester c1869 and was a labourer in a blacking factory. In 1891 He lived on Oldham Rd with his wife Henrietta Bertha nee Conley. By the 1901 census she was a widow and had moved to Gould Street, Manchester. Soon after she remarried her lodger, William Gothard.
I have found their marriage details but am really stuck as I can't find a death certificate/record for James Taylor. I'm pretty sure they got married in St George's church in Manchester but won't have the details confirmed until marriage cert arrives next week.

Any clues?
Thanks in advance!
Jill Harrington, nee Coward
