Can you be more specific as to exactly what kind of info and dates you are looking for?

The last available census is 1911 which can be found on www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk

His birth/marriage certs can be downloaded from the same website if you want the actual dates

His death can be established using the same site and the year he died will determine whether it can be downloaded or whether you will have to buy a copy

Ah that’ll be him. Is that the 1911 census then?

Does it show anywhere where he died?
I struggled to find him or his death after 1929?

Why would the 1911 census show when he died?  Wife died in Lanark

Have you bought a copy of his wifes 1989 death cert to see whether James was still alive at that time?

There are 10 possible entries in Lanark between 1929 and 1989

Narrow it down - when was their last child born?
