Does anyone recognize the early aviator in this photograph, please?

Absolutely! Spot on. Thank you very much. There is a very similar image of him on the web.
Gilmour held French aviator’s certificate #75, so no certificate from the RAeC and therefore no image of him from that source.
Fascinating story – bit of a wild child and killed at Richmond 17 Feb 1912. The clipping of him in my initial post is from a larger photograph of Gilmour with his Bleriot monoplane with a JAP 35 hp engine at Lanark in the summer of 1910.
