Does anyone know if Iain Morton is still active?

He worked for Rolls-Royce in Derbyshire in the 1960s and played for their chess club (Mick Alderson, DCA). His last league appearance was in season 1963/64. I don't know whether re remained in England or returned to Scotland.
Any contact information appreciated.
Thanks

If it is, it may be possible to get contact details.

Thanks Nick.
That link shows what I think is the correct year of birth (1936). I check the ECF Ratings, but nobody of that name listed now.
