Lily, I put him into my index, but did not come up with anythng.  I only have up to the 1920 census, so maybe you should request a 1930 lookup.  I suggest you give as much information as possible when you make your request.   Did they have any children?  If so, you might name them.  Sometimes you can find the parents by the children's name.
Do you know how old either William or Margaret is?   If I make it to our library this week, I'll look at Ancestry and see what they have.  Until then, maybe you can get a hit with someone else.  Good luck. ------Genealiza

Lily, I've found Maggie's immigration record and also her entry in the 1930 census.  I've never looked at the immigration records before, but this one had  one line on two pages to transcribe.  Unfortunately, I wasn't able to decipher all of the headers, so if you come across a blank form, I think they may have them on Ancestry, you can fill in the blanks with my transcription.---Genealiza
