	The death for Margaret MacMillan / Gunn is also indexed as Donaldson so either Margaret and Duncan divorced or that death for Duncan is incorrect. ????? Surname Forename Spouse Surname Spouse Forename Year Ref RD Name MACMILLAN MARGARET DONALDSON JOHN 1941 628/ 85 Cambusnethan

	There is also a possible death for Duncan in Cambusnethan in about 1939. Can’t access it at the moment As I stated the 1969 was speculative- in view of where the mother died
