Siegmund Gutmann BOSTON

Yay...the death certificate! The age certainly matches. Interesting that a cousin (H Masbach) in Germany was the informant. Although the 1896 marriage record indicates SG was from Austria. 

Its absolutely baffling me!

As this SG was a Naturalized British Subject (by 1901) could this be him below?

Good Luck I wonder if the Siegmund Gutman who died in 1902 might be this person in 1901

Added - sorry I missed your last post

Thank you Kay.
Much appreciated

This was from FindMyPast - on Anc he is transcribed as Silgruand Isutman.   Checked the original on Scotlands People and  although it is badly written it does look like Siegmund Gutman

Perhaps Siegmund had close ties to his German family (and visited often).  I wonder if H Masbach was coincidentally in England at the time of Siegmund’s death?

While I’ve not looked at too many American marriage records, I have noticed a few “errors” in American census returns for birthplaces, especially for Germany.

Added: great finds, everyone!

A possible for the cousin is a Herman Masbach, born 1863 in Germany. He's also a Merchant. He's in the 1881 (Islington) and 1891 (Manchester) census reports.

As per the 1902 death cert, Herman's residence is Mayence on Rhine (aka Mainz). It's the largest wine producing region in Germany.
