The burial entry in the parish register is available via Ancestry - but gives no further detail to that you already have. It just says Wm Mcnish Porter, Castle St(reet) late of Montreal Canada, age 32 years - no occupation or other info is recorded (which is quite normal for burial registers at the time).
