My Uncle - Duncan Cameron b. 8.12.1892 Aberdeen, Scotland. Died WW1. IGI -gives Death as 1917. (25yrs old) Looked on Commonwealth War Graves Commission came up with 4 deaths in 1917. It only had the D. initial of first name and no recorded ages on any of them, they were all Scottish Regiments. No next of kin recorded either. His parents were Duncan & Lily Cameron, Aberdeen, Scotland. Where do I go from here, can I get anymore details from anywhere ???? Am I able to get the usual Death Certificate, seeing he died in WW1.

I have death certs for two G.Uncles from WW1 and neither have the name of next of kin although they do have their army number.
