Hello all

Can anyone help with looking up a death announcement for Norman William Cruickshank.
He died on 22 October 1974.  I'm unsure as to where he died.  It could be in Queensland or New South Wales.   He was born on 24 May 1897 in Banffshire, Scotland.   His parents were William Bennett Cruickshank & Jessie McPherson

Much appreciated
