Found the 1939 by using the later birth dates of 1862/3 which seem to be consistent on the census etc.

Poster gave 1858 which is why I posted the 1861 census that I did.

Where did you get 1858 from Susan as there was a James Richard Rowe born 1857 St Germans as well as 1863

This I expect is the 1863 one - all born St German's

????? death registration

that would put his birth year at about 1864 ........... but wrong ages are not uncommon on death certificates as the information given is only "as known to the informant"
