Hi Anne,

A mis-spelling of his surname: CWGC

When I say mis-spelling, it should be noted that CWGC was provided with additional information and the parents are also under Dustan, and this corresponds to the spelling on his MIC.

Stuart

The surname is Dustan. Dunstan, as Stuart suggests, is I suspect an error.

This Joseph born at Rothes in 1894 was registered as Dustan.
