Do you have Lawrence's birth cert? I cannot find a birth on scotlandspeople for him (using Stewart and Stuart)

There is a marriage on scotlandspeople for James Stewart and Ann Barrie in 1906. The marriage cert will give you their ages and all their parents' names.

The death Dee found from the CWGC - no wife or children mentioned and he would only have been 12 in 1906, so I don't think he can be the one in that marriage:

Rank: Lance Corporal
Regiment/Service: Cameronians (Scottish Rifles)
Unit Text: 2nd Bn.
Age: 21
