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.

Dalziel, Dalzell, Gourley, Cromie, Crombie, Bell - Co Down. Lewis, Corrigan, Morris, Cox, Hay - Monmouthshire/Pembrokeshire.  Baker, Ginger, Woodhurst, Swift, Jones - Kent/London.

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
