Note: NOTE: Not entirely sure what's going on here! All the records say he died in 1921, but then he apparently turns up alive and well in 1930. He even has his daughter Imogen and family living with him. Also, he's recorded as a Widower in 1930, but wife Loraine is still alive.

It looks as though there may be 2 families intertwined, but there's nothing obvious that would indicate this.

It's possible that the Death Record has been mis-transcribed, and it should be 1931, but this doesn't explain the dates on the headstone, unless they've been replaced erroneously at some point.
