Hello

ANDREW, Gilbert Mcllwick - LAC - 1304903 - the Statutory Deaths Register on the Scotland's People website records that he died at 3.15 p.m. at 19 Green Street, Ayr, due to Pulmonary TB.

DAVIES, John - AC2c - 2266266 - there's a 24 year old John Davies, registered Nuneaton, September 1946 - a possible match.
