As far as Bob Blackett's "death" goes, there is no actual statement anywhere that he is dead, rather than, say, having run off with another woman.

However, Nancy refers to him in the past at the summit of Kanchenjunga and Captain Flint also tells Molly Blackett that Bob would have liked the children the way they are, rather than the way the GA wants them to be, so I think it is fairly safe to assume that Ransome meant us to understand that he was dead, but no cause or date of death is given anywhere.
