These two names appear on the Lochmaben WW2 names list. I cannot find wither on CWGC or SNWM.
Pte. Robertina Murray, A.T.S.
LAG/W. Jessie Richardson, W.A.A.F.
Anyone able to find them?

I found the D.C. for both.
Robertina Murray is described as a Munitions Worker, Private, Auxiliary Territorial Service (discharged) and she died aged 21 in 1944 of Pulmonary T.B.
Jessie Richardson described as Aircraft Woman, Womens Auxiliary Air Force (discharged). Died 1944 aged 24 of Pulmonary T.B.
So are these non-comms?

No. I had both of them checked out a year ago following a private request
Both died of TB in the local Sanatorium after being discharged.
It might be that they died of the cause of their discharge, in which case they could be non comms. They could, of course, have been discharged for an entirely different cause.
The only way they could proceed further is with the asistance of their NOK in obtaining their service record. There is a cost.
Details of Jessie Richardson are here.
