Use freebmd.org.uk to find his death. You can use the same site for finding his marriages and possible children. then you can follow them through their marriages.

When do you think Walter was born? there is a death of a 45 year old Walter Scott thomson in Wales in 1900.

Look for the births of the children on the FREE-to-all GRO site to find out MMN, then look for the marriage of their parents

Being a dental surgeon does not stop you being a member of Lloyds or even just dabbling on the stock market.

There doesn’t seem to be another one of that name. The dental surgeon was living in Cavendish Sq

Not certain that any of this has any relevance, as the MMN on the birth of the poster's 'sister' was ThomPson.
