I am searching for the death date of George James, born c1856-1859 in Dorset, England. George was likely born in Tarrant Rushton, Dorset.

George married Fanny Weeks on October 09, 1879 in Six Penny Handley, Dorset. Fanny died October 12, 1938 in Swindon, Wiltshire, England.

George shows up in the 1891 and 1901 census with Fanny and children including my grandmother Beatrice James, who was born c1890 at Long Crichel, Dorset, and died in Toronto, Canada in 1925.
. I think it's George in the 1881 census as well, although his birthplace is different.

Can anyone find the death date and place for George James?

Many thanks,
Murray

Only 10 miles from Wimborne which was the registration district for the 1911 so looks promising
