    Alex and Malcolm

    COOK, George Arthur - died at 3.50pm at The Hotel, Inchture, Perthshire, of Coronary Artery Thrombosis and Coronary Arteritis. His profession is listed as Hotelkeeper.

    WEBB, Frederick Thomas John - not on Scotland's People. However there is a possible match in a 'Frederick Webb', aged 40, whose death is registered at Swindon in the July-August-September quarter 1945.

    Regards

    Simon
