Is he the entry on SP aged 37 mmn McConnell?  Do you have his death cert showing exactly whereabouts in Ayr he died as that may indicate  where he was buried.

That'll be him.  Haven't got Death Cert; Scotland's People say death registered in Ayr. Not in any municipal cemetery in South Ayrshire. No reason to think he didn't die at home address. Looks like buried in a churchyard.

If he died 16.7.21 that was just after the 1921 census so looking at that census will give his address
