OK! There isn't anything unfortunately - this is the only result and it's most unlikely!!

This is the only death which shows that birthday - might be a bit too far out for the year?

The birth year is less important than the day and month, if trying to find deaths in England 1970-2006 - people often get a birthday right but mess up the age!

There is only one birth in Bellshill for a person of that name registered in 1929. So could be born end of 1928.
Do you have the name of his parents?

Do you have his full date of birth?


Youve put in your OP he was born in 1928 but later state 1929?

If he died in England/Wales, it was after 2006, and those records are not on line.

Are you saying that neither his brother nor his sister had any descendants who may have known this man?

No problem Cath. Just checking - I take it you do not have his exact DOB then?

So, you are starting with the premise that he died in England between 1969 and 1988? The only one which remotely fits was in Manchester in 1984, and that is a John Joseph Mackie born 4 Apr 1927..
If you can get hold of his actual birthdate, if he died up till 2006 this can be used to check.
