Just a wee comment re the death referred to in Reply #4....

The death notice shows his age as being 84 years in 2013, therefore not born about 1935/36.

There was a Norman John MacDonald in the 1963 Raglan Electoral Roll, not in that area afterwards.  I am wondering if it could be a possibility that he is still living?

Agree KHP ... I believe the "Norman John" being sought, is very likely to still be alive.  ;)
