Re-reading - Reply 18 gave a link to a message board post said Peggy McDowall married a Platt. This could be the Margaret McDowall born 1907 (mentioned in reply 27) to Andrew and Agnes McDowall.  Can't see a UK marriage for a McDowall to a Platt.  If Margaret had married then divorced or her husband had died she could have remarried under a different name  ???
Still looking.

Would be handy to know the exact birth date of Margaret McDowall born 1907 Edinburgh. Have found a passenger list for a Margaret M Platt - born 13-11-1906 and aged 52 years Montreal to Greenock Scotland arriving 27 July 1959 on the Empress of England  - Going to Adelphi Hotel Liverpool for 17 days. Travelling alone. Housewife.
Could be coincidence  ???

Sorry I am not a member of Genes Reunited but I "know a very helpful lady who is" and she might be able to contact the poster for us.  DB will advise us here if she can help.  ;)

There is also very helpful lady (Rosie) in Scotland who might be able to confirm the birth date of Margaret McDowall for us so that we can count or discount that passenger list entry for 1959  ???

What a team  ;D

Hope we can make some more progress for you.

Just to update - a kind RootsChatter has sent a message on your behalf to the poster on Genes Reunited - although the post was 2008, we hope they will respond.
