Death Look Up

[tazzy]

Hello everyone
I'm looking for a Death for George Henry Dickson after 1949 in South Africa.   He was 72 years old at this time.  Occupation was a Chartered Accountant.
He was born  on 28 August 1877 in Biggar, Lanarkshire. 
I found him returning to Southampton in 1920 on a passenger list from South Africa with a wife named Evelyn Alice (m'/s unknown) and a son Robert Henry Dickson aged 9 and a daughter named Marion Evelyn Dickson aged 6.   I can't find a Marriage for him to Evelyn so don't know if he married in SA. I can't find anymore information on the son and daughter either so presume they died in England but not sure.
I've come up against a brick wall but hoping someone can help

Very much appreciated

Hello Comberton & Carole

Many thanks for the information as to George Dickson's wife, Evelyn Alice Hemphill
I've managed to trace all her family on 1891 & 1901 census
I think the children must have been born in South Africa. 
There's no sign of them on the return journey in1921 to South Africa, which I find strange as they would have been approximtely 7 & 10 which made me think that they may have died before 1921

Returning to SA in 1938

Last address in UK was c/o Mrs D Gudgeon, "Fircroft" 293 Bramhall Lane, Stockport, Cheshire. Seems to be Mabel Ann Townsend  Gudgeon nee Hemphill. Think the Mrs 'D' should be Mrs 'R'.
