Have you got your grandparents' marriage cert? If so, what did James say about his mother Mary Wingate? Sometimes you get clues from that. Also, what were the witnesses names at the marriage. Again, sometimes witnesses names can also add further details.

Is this the other post you mean? www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=316899.0

Likely best to leave more responses on that post as that seems to have most of the info there  :)

Have you got that 1920 marriage cert (available via Scotlands People)? The 1901 census and the 1911 census are also obviously important in giving you more info re William's early years.
