Good going, you have certainly been doing your research.
Per your request, John is my Great Grandfather x 3 also.
The information you provided is very intriguing as I had been wondering where John & Margaret, as well as their children, were buried.
My research had also shown 5 children but with differences : Margaret (dressmaker), Alexander (miner) & John (pit labourer) -
The 2 other children I believed were: George (have little record of), Jane White (name continued into next generation). Jane died 1899 suddenly aged 64 but had married twice, first to Archibald Renwick 1853 who died 1870, then to John McPherson 1871. Have no record of Isabella.
Never got the opportunity to check the list of accidents in mines in West Lothian, but had also been advised an injured party's name may not be on this list for particular reasons. Not living in Scotland has disadvantages - have to choose carefully when & what to research during visits.
I would be happy to communicate further either by forum or email, to cross reference our trees & share any relevant information, if you are interested.
Thanks
Mark
