Yes, this is the same one - although there is a discrepancy of one day in the date of death.  Helen Scott was my maternal grandmother - although Brown was the name of her second husband ie my grandfather (so I'm not sure why that later name would have been given too).  Thank you!  hmg

Thank you so much - this has filled in a lot of detail which makes other things make sense now.  We are virtually sure this is the correct one.  hmg

Hi, Bougie, Thanks for the very prompt reply.  We know he had been living in Alloa, (and prior to that in Inverleithen) and we think, working for the Co-op.  He married my grandmother, Helen Munro, at the end of 1915.  However, the 'Driver' doesn't ring any bells, and, unfortunately, we don't have his exact date of death.  hmg

I wonder if you could look up my grandmother's first husband who was called George Scott and originated from Hawick?  We know he died in 1917 but are not sure which regiment he was in or even whether or not he could have been a conscientious objector who was nevertheless sent to the field of war.  Thank you!
