Moray (Elginshire) / William Mustard
« on: Friday 11 July 25 16:29 BST (UK)  »

Looking for any help.

A william Mustard is registered at Staying at Muirton Farm in Lossiemouth around 1940.

From a 1921 Census on Scotland's people

Muirton had William Mustard age 49, Wife Eliza and Son William Alexander Mustard age 17.

It appears William Senior died in 1934, and it mentions a son in New Zealand / Australia in different papers.

in 1940, a Captain William A Mustard is recorded at staying at Muirton, and in 1946, a 19-year-old son Stuart who was injured in an accident

Trying to establish Alan – Not available in am, pm possible – Remotesh if W A Mustard was the son listed in the 1921 census, and went to NZ/Australia, and returned at some point.  also if there was a son James Albert or James Addison? thay may have been boprn over there and came back to the UK.

Any help would be great!

A picture has been found

Just working with the source on the price (newspaper). Bargaining with the fact I have provided the paper with photos and helicopter flights in the past.

The photo is from 1978, but didn't appear in the press.

This will help my book greatly in securing the picture!
