Hi Clancam, sorry I'm not in Scotland, but I had a similar situation with my gt gt uncle James Campbell who disappeared after the 1871 census from Newcastle on Tyne. I eventually found that he'd died in Aceh in 1873, from the Registers of Wages and Effects of Deceased Seamen (BT 153) which I accessed through FMP. He was an engineer, and died of cholera.
Have you had a look in these registers? There are quite a few different ones, if you think John Campbell died at sea.
