Yes it looks very like it! Please note I have amended my last post as it should have said Arthur Davren and Catherine McDermid.

I just re read that post myself and if the original Arthur Davren is the son of Arthur and Agnes Shillard it would make him the brother to my Great, Great, Great Grandfather John Davren Who married Jessie Carruthers in 1882

I have had a look at the 1911 census index and the family was as follows -
Arthur Davren 23
Helen Davren 25
Helen H Davren 5
John Davren 3
Alexander Davren 1
So it looks as if John had two siblings by 1911. Jessie was actually born before the marriage ( Jessie Hosie 1905). She married James Marshall in 1926 in Bridgeton ( indexed both as Jessie Hosie and Jessie Davren). She died in 1976 in East Kilbride.

Is anyone able to help me locate a death date or record of any kind for my Grandads brother William (billy) Davren
He was bred, born and lived in Scotland his entire life. But he died here in Australia while on Holiday.
So I'm having a bit of trouble locating the information.

I also don't know if he was Buried in Australia or sent home.

It had to be between the years of 2000 and 2013.

Any help much appreciated

Hi, I just got off the phone to my dad who confirmed yes he married Eleanor but although they separated, Billy loved Eleanor very much and went back to her around 8 times after their separation. He doesn't believe that he ever got remarried.

From memory Dad thinks it was Eleanor who had him flown home from Sydney, Australia within 48 hours of his death, as it was Eleanor who wanted him buried at home and not in Australia. So although I can't say for certain, it doesn't sound like he re married

ADDED: I know he also had 2 children. A daughter (unsure of her name or year of birth) and also a son William Davren born maybe 1967-1970.

I saw those other two marriages for William Winning Davren and actually wondered if it was maybe his son who was getting married. Strangely there is no birth for a William Davren after 1945 anywhere in Scotland. There was a William Winning .......... birth in Glasgow in 1968 but the surname doesn’t tie in.

I think I possibly found his son's marriage as well to Georgette Cooper in  1999 Glasgow. Billy was visiting his son in Sydney, Australia when he sadly passed away. A William and Georgette married 1999 in Glasgow but did live in Sydney around that period and are currently still in Australia
