I have found son Andrew's marriage, to Jessie Bruce in 1929.

Father Hugh is still alive (at least not noted as deceased), so narrows it down a bit more.

Died between 1929 and 1931.

Hi I wonder if Hugh went over to  Northern Ireland to work and died there it is only approximately 21 miles by sea  across from Stranraer.
You could also contact the Records Department Blackpark Estate Stranraer the have the records for all the cemeteries in the area as you have Maggie and her children's deaths they will confirm where they are and give you details who are in each plot.
Inch is a lovely cemetery at Castle Kennedy about 5 miles from Stranraer

I recall doing a death check on the Irish records yesterday. Nothing showed.  It might be worth looking again. It could be an unknown or similar. I also tried initials, which have shown in the past when death was in a wkhouse hospital. Nothing so far.

Add - Suzi - the OP has recorded Maggie's burial in Stoneykirk - see ev and Op's posts.

I have found this in Canada.

Matches his DoB and possible DoD.

I wonder if this can help I have an ancestor born in Glenluce in the 1870's left around 1912/13

and headed to Canada he was there about 2/3 years then returned back to Scotland around1915/16

He was heading to Montreal Quebec apparently there were quite a few local men went together

according to my aunt (his daughter) ,He lived and worked in the Glenluce area on his return.
