He worked as a baker in the store at Lugar.
He was posted missing at the Battle of Loos on 25 Sep 1915.
His service record survives. He was 5 ft 5 in tall and brown eyes and light brown hair.
His sister Annie McFedries of 137 George St, Ayr was his next of kin and received his medals. She was 16 years older and brought him up after his mother died. (Her husband, William McFedries, turns out to be a second cousin once removed of my husband!)
