Update
5 years on from initial posting

Well I think ive traced all of my fathers cousins and what became of them

My aunt is the last living grandchild of this couple

Compared to their parents and grandparents they had small families and few boys

I was beginning to think the Macdermid name was dying out ...rarely used as a middle name after 1940 either .
Have established DNA links in Australia New Zealand + America including one adoptee

None in Scotland ....

The first cousin b 1906  Duncan s descendants were the hardest to find
.He had a son and a daughter

His son had no children and died in Newcastle england

BUT  the person who told me is a MacDERMID  with 3 brothers

Turned out Duncans daughter b 1910 the year he died
Had a son b 1933 who she named Duncan Malcom Macdermid ( after her father & grandfather)
He unfortunately passed away 2000 but has left sons .a daughter .grandsons and great grandchildren

I was really excited by this news + hope I can pass on the family history that  I've ammassed with.your help.

I dont think they knew their grandmothers story .....might have to help them find out about her soldier boyfriend now .....+ hope one of the clan will do DNA too

I'm passing on the results to descendants worldwide especially those who don't know about their Scottish ancestry and their ancestors reasons for leaving Cambuslang .

Will update with responses .
