Yes - this makes Piggy even more of an outsider, and of course makes the contrast of him having no parents and Ralph's glorified father even more stark. Additionally, we can assume he understands the pain of death and the significance of it, and so when Simon dies he is one of the few who become noticeably affected by it; contrary to the ignorance of the rest of the boys.

Yes, in the novel "Lord of the Flies" by William Golding, Piggy's parents are presumed dead because they are never mentioned in the story and Piggy himself mentions being raised by his aunt.
