As promised, I haven't changed the article but adding my findings here. Nobody named Michael Gilhooley was born in Scotland in 1896, either in Edinburgh or Fife. The only likely candidate was born 1894 here A census return from 1901 shows the same boy aged 6 living in Edinburgh, but by 1911 he was in Lochgelly, so that is almost certainly the right guy. And this more or less confirms he died in 1969, in Troon no less, where he finished his playing career. I haven't accessed the birth certificate or census forms, this was all public access (although you have to register for free to view). Probably too OR to amend the article, hopefully a historian will have reached the same conclusion and might publish it one day, don't suppose it hugely matters. I suspect he knocked a couple of years off his age at some point to appeal to clubs looking to sign him. Or maybe someone mis-read a 4 as a 6 and it stuck from then.
