James death registration reveals he spent 6 years in New Zealand (to approx. 1879), 7 years in South Australia (to 1886), 12 years in New South Wales, probably areas surrounding Broken Hill (to 1898), and then 4 years in Western Australia (Boulder City) to the time of his death in early 1903. This probably mirrors the movements of the family.
