Very many thanks, SL, for taking the time to respond.
He was unmarried and had no middle name, so he didn't intend to make it easy anyone trying to trace him!  I can find no record of his birth date here in Scotland, thus my enquiry for his age at death.               
I obtained his date of death from details attached to his will which was partly made in Jamaica, just prior to his death in Charleston.

Looking for any information on James who died Fort Hyderabad, India, 28 December, 1844, aged 30.
Possibly (but not certain) with the East India Company.

Yes, Monica, my posting.  Margaret Douglas, wife of Robert Highet, was a niece of Samuel Douglas, owner of Windsor Castle Plantation, Jamaica. Hence my renewed interest in the Highet/McGregor/Price families.
Thanks again for all your assistance.
