Derek - it's the "and all that" bit that worries me.
James Alexander Stewart Burges appears on the WW1 Roll of the Fallen of Glasgow University M.B. Ch.B. 1910 - but no other info.
That's a bit odd considering his age at death was apparently 45 in 1917 - aged 38 when he qualified??????????. _________________ Ken |

James A Stewart Burges married Mabel Annie Radcliffe in Kilmacolm, Renfrewshire in 1914 (Can't add more, no credits left)
Isn't Bridge of Weir in Kilmacolm Parish? _________________ Ken |
