Just a thought: since Britain had conscription in WW1, I'm wondering if he had to register, and if this registry is accessible. Clearly, he'ld be too old to actually get called up, but even so he might still have been required to register, which would help pin his death date down further - and maybe even give his address.

Firstly, determine from available info when they were last known to be alive.....

Unless you give a few clues, we can't really give accurate advice.
