An Adam Milne whose details match (MMN May) died in Peterhead in 1984 aged 96,

and George Milne (MMN May) died in Peterhead in 1976 aged 83.

Perhaps George returned to Peterhead from Detroit?

There's a few others on ScotlandsPeople.

If you have a look at the 1856 married registration of Adam Milne and Christian Bruce, that should name the parents of both parties. You'll also find Adam's age at the time he married, which should help with tracking down a date of birth.

Hi Brian if you get a copy of the marriage certificate for Adam Milne 1856 on Scotland's People it Will give you his parents names ..Which will help in finding his birth

Christian Milne (nee Bruce) is shown as a widow in the 1871 census, but as married in 1861, so it looks like Adam Milne must have died some time between 1861 and 1871. I can't see any obvious death of Scotland's People, but given he was a seaman, it's reasonable to suppose he died at sea.

I think the marriage registration is your best bet to track down his parents.

Just to recap on the family born to Christian Bruce and Adam Milne
John William Bruce Milne 25 May 1857 Peterhead

Jean Milne 21 July 1859 Peterhead

Thomas Bruce Milne 18 June 1861 Peterhead

Adam Milne 2 May 1864 Peterhead died 1865 Peterhead ( mother's maiden name Bruce )

Margaret Burr Milne 25 March 1867 Peterhead died 1887 Peterhead

Seen the death certificate for Christian Milne /Bruce she died 28 July 1905 widow of Adam Milne seaman ...So quite possible Adam died at sea

Article in the Buchan Observer 16 Nov 1866 has this

On Sunday afternoon, October 28th, as the brigantine "Henry Deuse" of London, Captain Abernethy, was on her voyage from Peterhead to Stettin with a cargo of herring,Adam Milne, the cook, was unfortunately drowned .... The unfortunate man leaves a widow and three children to mourn his loss.
