Just to add into the thread, James Robert Carruthers (older brother of William Isaac) was killed in action in September 1917. His CWGC record gives his parents as James and Mary A Carruthers of 161 Meldon Street, Newcastle on Tyne.

Thanks for the help again both of you.

RTL, you have already spotted what I was going to tell you but thanks for the offer.

Boo, I visited Tyne Cot last year with my wife and found his name, it a very moving place.

This may be total coincidence and completely unrelated but if you look for children of William and Mary on free BMD there are two possible, Vera (b.1920) and Lilian (b.1924) both born in Newcastle.

The 1939 register has a Vera Carruthers (b.1916) living in Hexham with a Thomas C Carruthers (b.1887) together with Jean Carruthers (b.1918) and William I Carruthers (b.1926). He is married, all of the others are single.

I know William had an uncle Thomas but I had him as Thomas L and born 1878, but I haven't researched him at all so it may be I've misread the census when I first looked at it.

As I say it could be pure coincidence because the dates of birth are all wrong but it could be Williams kids living with their uncle because everyone else has died, or it could be a relative who just happened to have kids with the same names, or it might be completely unconnected.

I'll keep looking.
