Longest of long shots. I have a funeral on 21 April for a Douglas Buchan. He lived in a care home in Hailsham, East Sussex. I know nothing about him except his name and date of birth. I would like to be able to cite one fact. Anyone in Hailsham area know him? @HailshamNews

@brochherald Hi. A follower of mine said that the name Buchan was common in your area. Would anyone know a Douglas Buchan who was born in 1954? I am holding his funeral next week. No family or friends and nothing known. Would like to find out he was. Thanks.

@thecourieruk Hi. A follower of mine has found that Douglas Buchan (born 1954) was in Fife until 2008 before coming south where he died this year. I'm holding his funeral. No family or friends & nothing known about him. Could you retweet to see if anyone in Fife knows him? Thanks

@KC_Times Hi. I am holding a funeral for a Douglas Buchan, born in Hampstead in 1954. He died in a care home this year without family or friends to speak for him or attend his service. He may have a brother and sister in law in SW3. Could you retweet? Thanks.

@pressjournal Hi. I am holding a funeral for a Douglas Buchan who may have been born in Peterculter in 1954. He died in a care home in Sussex this year without family or friends to attend his service. I have no info about him for the eulogy. Could you please retweet? Thanks

So yeah, lived in Hailsham from at least 2017-2020. Possibly lived in Fife until 2008. Possibly born in Hampstead. Possibly born in Peterculter. Lots of possibly. Thanks to everyone for the info. I have circulated it to the press for all of those areas.

I may be the only person who attends his funeral, but everyone pitching in on here this evening has shown him some love, and I will take that with me on Monday x
