Hello Hugh, he was indeed the son of Magnus and Mary Ann, his home address was Wester House, Cunnister, N. Yell. Probably doesn't surprise you, but I thought his name would have been listed on the Register-General's return of deaths as was the drowning of his nephew in Scotland's People. There was a war on, anything could have happened to the documents between Suez and Cardiff. My cousin who was drowned in April 45 had survived having been torpedoed twice in 42, Benmohr and Benalder, his parents believed he had survived the war until the fateful telegram arrived when the war was ending in Europe.. I'm grateful for your help Hugh, the elapse of 100 years doesn't help in the search.
Bill
