Looking on NSW births, marriages and deaths brings up this possible death

23566/1953 REID JOHN JAMES WILLIAM ELIZABETH TAMWORTH

Which shows a John James Reid dying in 1953 in Tamworth, NSW. His parents names were William and Elizabeth.

Does this match with the information you have?


There is also this death registered in Balmain, NSW with parents William and Agnes

10870/1952 REID JOHN WILLIAM AGNES BALMAIN

There is also a Scottish census showing an Alexandrina Reid with parents William and Agnes. There are other brothers and sisters on the 1891 and 1901 but no John Reid listed with them - so possibly not yours.
