Hi - You misunderstood my message. I was describing the records I found for my xgt uncle who had also retired to Douglas from the army, so that you would have an idea of where to look. All I did for James Grime was to check online, and ask Donna to look for an MI.

You could try asking the MM whether anyone would check the paper for an announcement of his death - you have the date to give them, and also the MI.
