There are too many JHL deaths on FreeBMD to identify his death date:

LATHAM John Henry         Dudley       6c 49
Deaths Jun 1873
LATHAM John Henry    77 Marylebone    1a 368

(The deaths at too young an age have been excised.)

The last is a strong possible as the age is near enough right.

or he could have died before 1838.

The probate index determines that his death was indeed the third of these.
