Found it he died 24 Nov 1923, Bailside, Chapelhall.

Martha is not listed, i guess james the son did not know her name?

Seems Sarah was still alive in 1923.

Will look for it now.

I cannot find a marriage, and was thinking they may have been Irish?

Have you a death for Archibald? His death cert will also have his parents details.
