This is the closest match I could find for Ancill, Sydney. He is not on the Glasgow RoH.
ANCILL, S J

Regiment/Service: General List
Date of Death: 04/07/1920
Additional information: (Buried in Baghdad East Jewish Cemetery).

Cemetery: BAGHDAD (NORTH GATE) WAR CEMETERY |
Yes, this man had me scratching my head also.
The only other possibility i could find, with a similar spelling was the following, who has no obvious Scottish connection.
Name: ANCELL, SYDNEY THOMAS

Unit Text: 1st/8th Bn.
Date of Death: 07/08/1915

Cheers,
Derek. |
