Almost certainly deceased

edit

I don't know much about cricket, but if he was umpiring first-class Test matches in 1928 then he was probably at least in his mid-twenties at the time. The "possibly living category" includes people born as early as 1907 but I think he was born before then. Skycloud86 (talk) 15:13, 11 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Yes, I'd agree with that logic. Most umpires of that era would have been in the 40s when umpiring in Test cricket. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 18:05, 11 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
Thanks! There's a few others like Collings where they were involved with sports in the 1920s but are still in the possibly living category even though they were probably already in their mid to late twenties. Skycloud86 (talk) 18:34, 11 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
