The above death registration is spare with information, but it does locate his place of death as 9 Crown Park Road. The 1921 census shows his wife and children still at 9 Crown Park Road so we may safely identify this Donald Cumming as the husband of Margaret Timmins.

The informant, W. Speers, is the undertaker.

A death notice for Donald has not been found in the archives of the Toronto Globe or the Toronto Star.
