I don't think your Denis would appear on an incoming passenger list as he's a british national traveling from a british port to another british port
There is a Denis McKeown listed but it's not likely to be yours given the dates
Name: Denis Mckeown
Birth Date: 30 Jan 1890
Age: 69
Port of Departure: Montréal, Québec, Canada
Arrival Date: 26 May 1959
Port of Arrival: Greenock, Scotland
Ports of Voyage: Montreal
Ship Name: New York

Did Denis have a middle name?
