John's death is not coming up on FreeBMD 1910-1920
although it hasn't been fully transcribed yet for this period so he could have died within these dates. I've looked at the index for 1921-1924 but no luck. I've also looked at the index 1910-1911 and no luck. I'll try and pick it up again tomorrow if no one else has found it.

With regards to his death; do you know whether he was still alive when Gilbert got married in 1927? Have you seen a copy of his marriage certificate? it would say if he was deceased

Although it says 'Suttman', I've looked at the original image and it is in fact 'Stillman'. So it looks as if John remarried.
