When did Edward Bates marry and to whom. If you get his marriage cert it will have his fathers name and occupation. Then you can look for him on the 1901 census.

I dont think an England death cert gives a place of birth. It hasnt on any I have bought.

Edward Bates died aged 54 Halifax vol 9a page 505, 2nd qtr 1945.
If you order the cert that should help you find out when he was born. You can order it online from The general registers office.
With kind regards Donna
found this but still better to get the cert to be sure.
Births Sep 1891
