Have you checked Scotlands People to establish what year he died?

SP has only one death for a David Murray between 1911-1921 with a birthyear of 1841- 1843

Have you already viewed and discounted it?

He seems to have moved around so may not have died in Fife

Married in Lanarkshire
1871 living in West Lothian
1881 in Stirling
1891/1901 back in West Lothian
1911 in Fife

I don't know how you are searching SP but I find sometimes less info yields more

This is all I put in to get the one possible match

Select Statutory deaths 1855-2009
