Hi Brodie
Welcome to RootsChat 
The best place for you to start is to view William and Helen's marriage certificate on line at Scotlands People www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk.
The cert. will include, amongst other info, their parents' names including mothers' maiden names which will let you hopefully trace their families.
There is only one marriage showing in the period you are looking at:
WILLIAM GRAHAM and HELEN THOMSON Marriage: 25 MAY 1866 Edinburgh Parish, Edinburgh, Midlothian
This looks like them in 1871:
William Graham 36, flax porter, b. Scoon
Hellen Graham 32, b. Lochio (spl), Forfarshire
Jessie D Graham 4, b. Dundee
James T Graham 3, b. Dundee
William Graham 1, b. Dundee
Address: Shaws Pend Cowgate, St Andrew Angus
Regards.
Monica

There is this possible birth showing on the Old Parish Registers:
JAMES GRAHAM Christening: 17 JUN 1810 Auchtergaven, Perth
Parents:WILLIAM GRAHAM and JANET GRIGOR
Going by the 1851 census in Redgorton for the family, looks likely that mother Janet Duff may have died between censuses. Last born child showing then is a James age 3. Will be harder to confirm her parents/birth place given that her death would have been before the start of official registration in 1855 (there are also too many possibilities in Perth around that time).
There is also the possibility, looking at the 1861 census, that James Graham may have remarried in 1856 in Redgorton to another Janet (PIRNIE). Again, his marriage cert will confirm his parents' names and show status (bachelor/widower). These early marriage certs didn't always show the name of first spouse for a second marriage but his death cert. may.
