Thank you so much everyone .interesting points Ticketyboo.I'd not thought about the date and the war .And William Watson was orginally from London so perhaps the unusually surnamed Frederick was a pal from those days .

Majm - that's a very detailed reply ,thank you so much .It's going to take a while to study !

Found a Frederick Schoulay born Germany in 1874 a tailor in Newcastle ,listed as a tailor .Possible as other sponsors were secondhand clothes dealers .

Trying to decipher Frederick's surname .Could it be Scolar ?
Entering Scolan /Scolar into FindMyPast for Gateshead ,any census year brings no results .

And the final letter of Scolar/n ..the n is not the same as on the two examples of Watson .The line joining the "a" and possible n in Scolan comes from the bottom of "a" .In the o of Watson it comes from the top .
