This might be the death you refer to:

Ontario, Canada, Deaths, 1869-1938 and Deaths Overseas, 1939-1947 a

Name: John Mcalpine
Death Date: 24 Feb 1914
Death County or District: York
Age: 83
Gender: Male
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1831

Resided 617 Huron Street, died of senile decay - sudden cessation of heart action. He was a retired clergyman. The Informant was Bates Burials.

Will try to find immigration ...

Do you know his parent's names?

You say his wife died in 1885, so is this her death?

Deaths Dec 1885 (>99%)
McALPINE Margaret 56 Newcastle T. 10b 90

............In which case the family must have moved further south.

Yes Catherine your right those censuses are the right ones
and yes sorry he was a shoemaker I've got that many John McAlpine's I was looking at the wrong one when I said he was a Labourer

Yes it does look as though I got Margaret's surname from the births
I've just had a look at marriages on scotlandspeople their isn't one up to 1852

Youngest child from 1871 census:-

Deaths Dec 1871 (>99%)
McAlpine Francis 0 Berwick 10b 265

Margaret's name possibly from baptism of children?

Scotland, Select Births and Baptisms, 1564-1950
Name: Cecilia Mcalpine
Gender: Female
Birth Date: 14 Oct 1858
Birth Place: Linlithgow,West Lothian,Scotland
Father: John Mcalpine
Mother: Margaret Hall

Looking at the names of siblings, I would say that this is probably him in 1851

George McAlpine Head Married Male 41 1810 Tailor England Transcription
Cecilia McAlpine Wife Married Female 41 1810 - Linlithgow, Linlithgowshire (West Lothian), Scotland Transcription
John McAlpine Son Unmarried Male 19 1832 Journeyman Shoe Maker Linlithgow, Linlithgowshire (West Lothian), Scotland Transcription
Thomas McAlpine Son Unmarried Male 15 1836 Journeyman Shoe Maker Linlithgow, Linlithgowshire (West Lothian), Scotland Transcription
George McAlpine Son - Male 12 1839 Scholar Linlithgow, Linlithgowshire (West Lothian), Scotland Transcription
Margaret McAlpine Daughter - Female 9 1842 Scholar Linlithgow, Linlithgowshire (West Lothian), Scotland Transcription
William McAlpine Son - Male 6 1845 Scholar Linlithgow, Linlithgowshire (West Lothian), Scotland Transcription
Francis McAlpine Son - Male 3 1848 - Linlithgow, Linlithgowshire (West Lothian), Scotland Transcription
Cecilia McAlpine Daughter - Female 0 1851 - Linlithgow, Linlithgowshire (West Lothian), Scotland

.........................also noted as Shoemaker.

So are we following the correct family?

Are you sure he was a labourer?

1861 shows him as a Shoemaker

John McAlpine Head Married Male 27 1834 Shoemaker Linlithgowshire (West Lothian), Scotland Transcription
Margaret McAlpine Wife Married Female 27 1834 - Berwick on Tweed, Northumberland, England Transcription
Robert McAlpine Son Unmarried Male 7 1854 Scholar Berwick on Tweed, Northumberland, England Transcription
George McAlpine Son Unmarried Male 4 1857 - Linlithgowshire (West Lothian), Scotland Transcription
Cellia McAlpine Daughter Unmarried Female 2 1859 - Linlithgowshire (West Lothian), Scotland

...........and after checking original 1871 looks as though his occupation there could also be Shoemaker.

As far as I know his wife was Margaret I've got Margaret Hall ?? don't know where I've got it from just tried to confirm it on BMD but nothing is showing up for
John McAlpine & Margaret Hall 1852 Northumberland

I've possibly got it from the births of the children

I know he could have remarried

Even a labourer could be appointed or set himself up as a Religious Leader.
