If you buy some credits on www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk you can look for Jane/Jean & Alexander Kinnear's deaths which will show their parent's names including Mum's maiden name.
Registration began in 1855 & as they were alive in 1861 their deaths must have been registered.

It's 1 credit to search & a further 5 to view the register. 30 credits are £6

Hi Trudy

It looks like he died between 1851 and 1861. If we could find a death certificate between 1855 (start of civil registration) and 1861 that would give his parents names but if it was before 1855 there wouldn't be a record. I thought his morther's first name might have been Elizabeth. I'll have a look.

Sorry Trudy. I have tried everything I can think of but can't find anything. I think both Alexander and his wife must have died between 1851 and 1855. Maybe you should try contacting Arbroath library who might be able to give you some advice.
