Many thanks to all who replied. It is the correct one and I found the link on Ancestry initially but don't subscribe to the newspaper part of the site. His mother was Mary, Terry so that helps confirming it is the one I thought it was. His father was Andrew but he deserted his Australian family to come back to the UK.

https://recordsearch.naa.gov.au/ is sometimes a useful place to search for Australian records.
They have a WW1 army file for John Andrew McGregor.

Search for:
McGregor John Andrew N90004

Image 32 says his father is Andrew Walter and mother Mary O'Loughlin, born 10 August 1899.
Sister is Mary Armstrong.

There is information there about the desertion and a plea from his mother.

Thanks Terry I do have all that info.
