David William's US passport application, 1924

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QS7-99D3-32C5?i=378&cc=2185145&personaUrl=%2Fark%3A%2F61903%2F1%3A1%3AQVR2-XHX6

David's marriage, 1919.

I think the other sons may also have gone to the US

Unfortunately, those that went abroad are unlikely to be able to help CWGC purposes.

Added I have checked the obits to see if there was any further information that could help trace other family members in the UK but sadly nothing to help.

Good find Sandra!

Does that help with finding living relatives?

Long shot - maybe - Hoping the Scottish papers may have a record of them meeting up with cousins
