I don't think that Margaret married again (post by malyon 15th Oct 17.06) as their daughter Dorothy was baptised in 1798, 5 years after that marriage!

The truth is, it's likely that both Robert and Margaret died before civil registration began in 1837, so there would be no official record of their deaths. The only record would be a burial and if that has not been transcribed and added online, you will not find them.
