.. but it's not looking too hopeful.
No unfortunately, I think you are out of luck.
The family were on Iona for sure before and after the 1841 census. Was Duncan born there? Either there or on Mull, maybe.

I forgot to mention that in the 1841 census, just 2 dwellings away from Duncan Black and family is a McPhail family

It might be worth looking at this family in a bit more detail, in case they are related to Flora.

Added: very interesting - John McPhail married Christy / Cirsty Black in 1817.
