The most obvious death is for a James Alexander Cole, born Portsmouth, but he did not die until 1916 i.e. after Elizabeth.
You need James and Elizabeth's marriage certificate for age, occupation, where living at time of marriage, Father's name, to help find out where he was born.

His Father's name should be on the marriage certificate, whether he died before the child was born or when his son was 6.

If you search for marriages here
http://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl
you can follow the instructions on there as to how to buy the marriage certificate.

Once you have found a marriage it says:
'Has our search engine found the record you are seeking?

Just work you way through and apply to the GRO
