Only one man of this name was born in Scotland - 1886 at Moffat.
I would expect the details on CWGC to be correct - they were provided by his family, likely his mother who would have known the location.

I did notice the medal card. I managed to find out that his mother was staying with Joseph Brown. I used Libindx for that. It's handy to use for NE info. I like it as it's free.
